Meeting Topic Brainstorm

Leave a comment with suggestions for possible topics. Feel free to indicate areas of special interest or expertise or resources you think would be especially helpful in facilitating discussion on a certain topic. I will compile the topics into a master list, and then we can vote to determine actual topics.

    Hi all,
    Apologies if I manage to do this incorrectly; I've never done more than read blogs. As a topic suggestion: philosophy of education? More specifically the fallibility of authority figures/teachers? Is that even legit? I'm also interested in objectivism as presented by Ayn Rand in "The Fountainhead." If these are weak, just let me know! Please remember that I have basically zero background in this field... I just like to learn : )

    i feel that we we're talking about this the other day at Shakespeare's and we had many ideas but i can't recall them now. paternalism is one option.

    i also recall Alyosha saying something about a speech on transhumanism which he was itching to deliver
