Hi Everyone,

This is a reminder that the next Aurora Philosophy Club meeting will be held on Tuesday February 25 in the Magna Room of the Aurora Public Library.

Our presentation this month is by Sherman Balogh who will discuss the ideas of Bernard Lonergan as presented in Lonergan's book Insight.  Lonergan's goal in the book is to establish a theory of knowledge and subsequently enable people, who read his book, to develop their own metaphysical system. This book does not provide a metaphysical system but instead it offers a series of exercises whereby the reader will eventually be able to think metaphysically. You might say that this book is a self-help book for aspiring philosophers/intellectuals who want to think metaphysically.

The following is a link to an article about Lonergen and his ideas in the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy:

Looking forward to seeing you all on Tuesday.
