You don’t have to have a degree in philosophy, though if you do, we’d love to learn from you! You can come in just as an observer, too.

Special Considerations and Warnings

If you’re easily offended by ideas you disagree with, this event probably isn’t for you.
That being said, we attack ideas - not people - in this group. Don’t call people morons just because they disagree with you. Don’t even do it if they say something moronic. We want to encourage people to grow in their ability to reason, not shame them into silence.

For you Red Dwarf fans …

Then why am I working a desk job and paying credit cards?!?!?

Because you choose to through your belief in not having another option.
One key to the holodeck is the understanding that it is through your own inner thoughts that you create the perceptions that you continue to perpetuate and project upon the outside world.
Only when you can allow other options to come into being through changing your beliefs about your situation can you even see the other opportunities.
