Life's "Big Questions" discussion group

Todd Nachowitz from EarthDiverse

Enjoy discussion groups and tackling life’s thorny questions? Try our Term 1 "Big Questions" course! This series of eight group discussions in our new Philosophy series examines life’s big questions. Topics include: What is the meaning of life? How to lead a good life? What is the best moral and political system? What is Language? Is our universe real? Does God exist? Is there truth, and if so, what is it?

Each session is introduced with a brief introduction from two guest presenters on the evening’s topic (with different backgrounds and perspectives), followed by an evening of moderated group discussion in which you participate.

This course meets on Thursday evenings (7:00-9:00pm) beginning on 18 Feb 2021.

Poll: Do you think this was the right decision?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton City Council is defending a $60,000 spend on a flood of water management PR featuring a TV personality as residents face huge rates rises.

At a time of council cash constraints, Te Radar - real name Andrew Lumsden - catches the eye on the council’s Facebook page, where he currently features in three “explainer” video clips about Hamilton’s water services.

Do you think this was the right decision? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
