Philosophy Talk
The program that questions everything
...except your intelligence.


7:00 PM Friday, Nov. 20th
Ponderossa Hall
$5 General Admission, ASB FREE

Philosophy Talk, a weekly, one-hour radio series, will be recording an episode live on the COS campus.

How Relevant is Jesus?
Some people think Jesus was the son of God, though many who are skeptical about that still think he was a great moral teacher. But if we really knew what Jesus would think about moral issues that he didn't confront while he lived, like abortion, terrorism, euthenasia, gay marriage or the destruction of old-growth redwoods, would it be that helpful? Would his moral vision have any implications for these issues? If so, would it be illuminating? The hosts of Philosophy Talk, Ken Taylor and John Perry, will discuss the moral philosophy of Jesus and its contemporary relevance with Andrew Fiala, Director of the Ethics Center at Fresno State University and author of What Would Jesus Really Do? The Power and Limits of Jesus' Moral Teachings.

This is not a lecture or a college course, it's philosophy in action! Philosophy Talk is a fun opportunity to explore issues of importance to the audience in a thoughtful, friendly fashion, where thinking is encouraged

This event is being made possible with the generous support of the Kegley Institute of Ethics, the Norman Levan Center for the Humanities, and Visalia Breakfast Rotary.
