    Hi Everyone, Coming up next Monday on September 2nd is our next "First Monday Epicurean Philosophy Hour - Meet-and-Greet and Discussion" - Via Zoom, 8pm ET.

    Open to all forum members!

    And we especially invite those who are new to the forum!

    This is a great way to meet, converse, and engage with others who are studying the philosophy of Epicurus.

    Agenda:

    • Welcome (and introductions)
    • Discuss some of the lastest popular threads on the forum
    • Special discussion topic - includes a very short presentation to introduce the topic, and discussion questions to spur on the discussion
    • Time for any questions from both new and regular attendees

    This month's topic: "Naturalism? Summing up and naming the foundational basis of the Epicurean worldview."

    We'll be using the same link as last month.

    If you have not yet attended a Zoom, please let us know here if you are interested (or send a private message to Cassius or myself) and we will get the link to you by private message (no later than the day before the meeting).

    Looking forward to seeing you there!

    Changed the title of the thread from “First Monday Epicurean Philosophy Zoom Discussion - September 2, 2024 - Agenda” to “September 2, 2024 - First Monday Epicurean Philosophy Zoom Discussion - Agenda”.

    Hi Everyone! Tomorrow night is our First Monday Epicurean Philosophy Discussion...open to all forum members...let us know if you are new and want to come (and have not yet attended) and we will send the Zoom link to you by private message. (For everyone else the link is same as last month).

    It seems that lately the subject of definitions has been much discussed...tomorrow night's discussion topic is: Can we label and define the foundational basis of Epicurean philosophy as "naturalism"? Why, why not, and the big "why in the first place" might we need (or want) to pin it down with both a label and an easy summary (yes, this should be easy to do ;)). Hope to see you there!
