from Lawrence, Sunday PhiloMadrid meeting: What are we waiting for?

Dear friends,


This Sunday we are discussing: What are we waiting for?

Maybe this question belongs to a set of quasi philosophical questions which includes: what is the
meaning of life? What are we doing on earth? Who created us? And so on.

Maybe this Sunday we will know what we've been waiting for, in the meantime

Take care

Lawrence

from Lawrence, Sunday PhiloMadrid meeting: Is every person their own world? + News

Dear friends,


This Sunday we are discussing: Is every person their own world?

If we are unique, as we believe even on scientific basis to be, then we also should see the world
around us in a unique way. And yet we can still investigate the behaviour of human beings and draw
general conclusion; predictive general conclusions. And the worst form of these predictive exercises
is of course stereotyping at best or racist believes at worst.

In the meantime Miguel has details of a Tertulia de Matemáticas:

Estimado tertuliano,

Te invitamos a asistir a la próxima Tertulia de Matemáticas:

Esperamos contar con tu asistencia, y aprovechamos la ocasión para enviarte un cordial saludo,

Tertulia de Matemáticas


P.S.: Si quieres impartir una conferencia envía un mensaje de correo para tratar los detalles.
Si quieres darte de baja en la lista de correo envía otro con "Baja" en el campo "Asunto" del mensaje.



In the meantime I look forward to seeing on Sunday,




Best

Lawrence

from Lawrence, Sunday PhiloMadrid meeting: Neither forgive nor forget

Dear Friends,

This Sunday, we are discussing rather different subject: Neither forgive nor forget.

A key question of the function of forgiveness is that it is not clear who is actually benefiting
when we forgive. Is it the person we are forgiving benefiting in the sense that we are promising not
to take revenge at a later date? Or are we benefiting in the sense that, given that we cannot take
revenge, or maybe given that we have already taken decisive revenge, then we put the issue to rest
by pretending that the status quo has been restored.

See you Sunday,

Best

Lawrence

from Lawrence, Sunday PhiloMadrid meeting: We are made by others

Dear Friends,

This Sunday we are discussing: We are made by others.

Apart from the literal meaning to this statement, there is no doubt that we are influenced by
others, and maybe we can influence the lives of others. A question we can ask ourselves, it what
changes can we undergo that are `part and parcel of being alive, and what changes are brought on us
as part of malicious intentions? And what should we do about it?

See you Sunday,

Best

Lawrence
