Edit on 2/13; We still have some great new entries into the discussion coming in.  Please remember to visit them.  Also, if you are coming in now and you would like to encourage others to visit you and comment, visiting others helps.  Even if you have visited their posts before, visit again and ask a question.


It was a tough vote this week, perhaps because there were so many topic choices. However, the choices are:

"What is the ultimate one-sentence philosophy? Why?" Hosted by Nance1 and Wonko_the_Sane

Pilgrim of Truth(combined post)
Lovegrove
Alluveal
orcofdoom
RedHairedCelt
tychecat
MFHorn
Zeal4Living
akagoethe
Wonko_the_Sane
Creed_of_Kings, combined post on all topics
eddiefromhb
ModernKulak
Czola
AdamGiveADamn
Building_A_Mystery


"Beauty is truth and truth is beauty." Is that true?, or "What is Truth?" Hosted by GaudyNight

Pilgrim of Truth(combined post)
Lovegrove
Italian_culture
Alice
Building_A_Mystery(part 1), and Part 2
Creed_of_Kings, combined post on all topics
eddiefromhb

"What is the rationale behind being spiritual? Why are so many people spiritual? " or "Is humanity a mistake of God's? Or god a mistake of humanity's? "
Hosted by Wonko_the_Sane

Mia
orcofdoom
Creed_of_Kings, combined post on all topics
Creed_of_Kings
The LegendaryFrog

I did some combining because the vote was not really definitive.

Nobody expressed an interest in a 1 week time frame and several people did say that they preferred 2 weeks, so we will run for 2 weeks. Please remember to keep visiting the later entries so that those members have an opportunity to participate.

Is anyone interested in making the next set of topics a Socratic Swing? If so, I will need more hosts. Does anyone want to try his/her hand at hosting? (For new members, a Socratic Swing means that several members host topics on their own sites. More topics are discussed that way.)

When your post is up, please post a link in the comments under this post.

I think a swing would be a wonderful idea since the topics are becoming more and more varied and the votes less and less definitive.  That seems to be a sign that it's time to allow everyone to discuss their own favorite topic

I would really like that in Socrates Cafe the discussion were driven in a socratic way, so that, first of all, respect for different opinions and try some introspection when a different opinion comes.
I sadly found that this is not the attitude of somebody.
