Epistemology

[close] Ethics of Care is about how we can make decisions, political, social, psychological, economic decisions, in a manner which respects life and its individual needs and joys, while honoring the interconnectedness , near and far, between humans and other entities of this Earth. Politics needs better guidelines to supplant the ill placed market values used to organise human and environmental welfare. Here we access and discuss texts formulated specifically around the #EthicsofCare, in order to develop our critical thinking skills and working vocabulary towards understanding and creating a sound debatable language of WELL BEING, not just of survival-welfare. Language and thought serve to describe how we might better organise ourselves, our politicians, policy makers and communities in a way that demonstrates Trustworthiness. Believing in the Now and the Future requires collaboration and trust. Ethics of Care also lies at the base of healing from the Past. Justice finds a welcoming home within the Ethics of Care where every person receives the care and respect needed at home, education, work and politics. Information about conferences and courses will also be posted, in the hopes that some of the group members might eventually meet one another.

[close] This is the group is intended for anyone interested in philosophy. It is just starting, but when I searched the public groups, I didn't find anything like this. I intend to take polls on what we will be reading in the future and never to dwell on one topic extensively but cover a broad amount of philosophy. I don't want this to be overly time consuming group, and I would like to direct it more toward those who want a bit of side reading, discussion, and social interaction with other philosophers but perhaps will have a number of books going at once to offer more variety. I'll try to set up a system of discussion on topics as well as readings.

[close] A Group dedicated to reading of Spiritual Books, Philosophy, Metaphysics to gain insight into various schools of thoughts fathoming the Truth and nature of Creation, eternal laws operating in this Cosmos, Tantra, Mysticism, allowing us to awaken to higher realities thereby expanding our awareness which is transcendental and leaping into a vortex of higher awakening leading us into a realm of Supraconsciousness where we can behold the world, life, creation and us in a pristine and completely unbiased and unprejudiced way.

[close] Each month a theme will be set with a suggested book for each age group (adult, young adult, 8-12 years, young children). You do not have to stick to your age group, it's just to provide a little something for everyone. Some months adult themes may be included, there will be a warning given prior if this is the case. If you add a book to the tbr please let a moderator know the key themes, genres and age range that it falls under.
