Conversations in life, learning and futures

F1 night racing? $300 sushi? Nose jobs? Pokémania? Thanks so much for your presence in the immediate past Community College meeting with Hamid, Brad and Joel et al. Please help me look out for next month’s discussion topic. Preferably, the subject matter should unpack at least one aspect of why people do the things they do, ie expressed through our elementals.

Our first topic (on the Christchurch shootings) had an unintended effect that triggered our meeting with the Madrasah Chairman as well as for local talent (Cappocinno) to step forward with an original composition, “Illuminate”.

In topic selection, therefore – because we meet in the community, these group conversations needs to provoke sufficient human interest to draw people outside the four walls of the church to participatory learning which is what community college is about.

Hopefully, we can settle on topics that will are thought-provoking and a little on the controversial side. Our group chats need to clarify issues (and not muddy them) – that will resonate with the general public on a deep level surrounding trauma and how the Church can render direct assistance.

Our theme last time was eleemosynary, but it doesn’t always have to be so. It can easily focus on any of the other 6 archetypes that impact human society. We can consider any issues that affect or impact the conversations of life, learning and futures is the goal.

Please help us think what these discussion topics could be to undergird some part of the 7 keys elements in the table of human behaviour – the archetypes and defaults that make life worth living.
