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: Would you help your kids out with buying a home?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

OPINION: Over the past year, I’ve had the same conversation with many Waikato families again and again.

A child has found a house. The market feels like it’s moving. There’s pressure to act quickly. And before anyone has really had time to think it through, parents are being asked to step in with cash, guarantees, or equity from their own home.

Would you help your kids out with buying a home? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
