The main aim of this group is to promote debate and discussion. We could chose a topic prior to the session, which will give each of us the time to find good points to talk about. These topics could be current affairs, philosophy, international relations, ethics, subject related (such as science). You could meet new people, have a laugh and have a good time in general. These debates are nothing serious. However, we could try to have a "panel" who can give points to each side and chose a winning …

Jean Paul Sartre: "Existentialism is nothing else but an attempt to draw the full conclusions from a consistently atheistic position." http://bit.ly/6HbK0V Jean Paul Sartre: "Existentialism is not atheist in the sense that it would exhaust itself in demonstrations of the non-existence of God. It declares, rather, that even if God existed that would make no difference from its point of view. Not that we believe God does exist, but we think that the real problem is not that of His existence; what …

If you're longing for intellectual discussions and love literature then this is the group for you. I've toyed with this idea for some time but have finally decided to go actively looking for a group that will dawdle over coffee or dinner for hours and hours.. If the idea of violent but civilised discussions on classic literature and poetry fills you with excitement then I hope you'll find a home here. A large group is not the idea at all. A small tightly knit group which shares similar interest …

I opened this meeting place to attract like-minded individuals who share a collective concern for our future, and I still hope there are some people in this group who retain this concern. I believe our liberties within urban civilisation are …

Over my short stint as meetup organizer of more than 90 events, I have come to see that many of the wonderful people I have met might need a cupid character in their life. So, I have volunteered to play this part and hopefully, play a small yet rewarding part in bringing some great people together. This is an Informal and relaxed gathering for people wishing to meet those around their age. Why cinema? Well, films are great conversation starters and we want to have fun with this so let's see how …
