Truth Seekers
Eligibility Requirements
The first requirement is to keep an open mind to the possibility that truth exists and can be found by those who diligently seek it out. The second requirement is that students agree to form a view of reality that is free from contradictions. Views of reality that contain contradictions will not hold water. Some students attempt to avoid rejection of a cherished yet contradictory world view by separating their beliefs into two non-overlapping realms: public and private. However, the contradiction, like acid, will burn a hole in the world view causing it to leak once
again.
Time Commitment
1 hour per week. September - May.
Meets
Thursdays after school in Room 1914.
Procedure for Joining
Simply attend one of our weekly meetings.
Description
Truth Seekers explore topics that matter to students. So we start each semester with student nominations of topics. In a typical semester, students nominate 70 topics. Then we vote to narrow the list to the top 10. During a typical meeting, we explore the topic for the week through any of the following activities:
Group Discussion, Video Clip, Guest Speaker, Informal Friendly Debate, Formal Debate, Hot Seat.
Once per year we organize a large venue event to which we invite all interested students, staff and community members.
Membership Limit
None.
