What Is the Meaning of Life? 

​

Saturday 18 October · 10am–1pm · Fellside Centre, Kendal
Includes tea, coffee, cake & soulful company

​

What makes life meaningful? Is there such a thing as a good life for all? Are we truly free or are our lives determined by fate, biology, or culture?

​

In this deep and thoughtful session, we’ll explore the big philosophical questions about life, freedom, knowledge, and progress. With no pressure to find final answers, we’ll honour the mystery, challenge assumptions, and enjoy the beauty of thinking together in a shared space.

​

Who Is It For?
Ideal for curious minds of all ages who enjoy asking the big questions and aren’t afraid of a bit of ambiguity.

​

What we will cover

• Theories of meaning and “the good life”

• Free will vs. determinism

• Is AI conscious? What does it mean to know something?

• Ethical progress: is humanity evolving or repeating itself?

• Socratic dialogue, journaling, and paired reflection

​

A space to reflect, question, and connect with others around what it means to be human.
