(Wikipedia).\n\nDeism differs from Atheism, which proposes that natural processes are solely responsible for the existence of the universe, or Theism, which professes a knowledge of God who can only be known through revelation given to certain people. Religion is a Theistic worldview.\n\n**History and Background:**\nDeism gained prominence in the 17th and 18th centuries as religion was increasingly challenged and scientific knowledge of the natural world expanded dramatically. Deists believed that divine laws could be discerned from a study of nature rather than sacred texts, and seeing the work of a supreme designer in the order of the natural world. Many scientists and philosophers of the time, such as Voltaire and Leibniz, were Deists (Wikipedia) as well as those involved in the founding of the United States, including Thomas Paine, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson.\n\nDeism declined following further scientific advancement and discoveries, particularly related to the age of the universe and the origins of humanity, leading many to an Atheistic worldview that the universe was solely created and exists in accordance with natural laws. Religion also staged a revival as science was seen as stripping away individual and communal spirituality that many find comforting.\n\n**So, why Deism?**\nAs religious intolerance remains stubbornly entrenched and science postulates a purely material universe devoid of higher purpose, can Deism help humanity to find meaning in existence and a way of living in harmony with each other and the world around us?\n\n**Questions for discussion:**\nIf the universe is the work of a creator (a concious being/s acting freely and rationally) as believed by Deists, then:\n\n1. Would humanity and the natural world have greater meaning and value to us than if they were the product of blind chance?\n2. Is our experienced reality ‘real’, meaning that our actions, or lack of them, actually matter and form part of the ongoing story of the universe?\n3. Would our understanding of natural laws have a spiritual dimension? Would the creator want us to know its intentions and increase our knowledge of its existence through our understanding of the universe?\n4. What would our moral values and decisions be if we tried to extrapolate them from the laws of nature? For example, should we help others at risk to ourselves?\n5. What should be humanity’s concerns and priorities based on the laws of nature, for example of issues like climate change, population, etc?\n6.

How does an investigator decide what lines of enquiry to pursue and what information to gather? How does a juror decide the guilt of a defendant, faced with a large body of conflicting information? How can you assess whether you're doing a good job, or being misled by faulty reasoning?\n**The psychology of decision-making**\nWe have an amazing capacity to make sense of the world but we all have the inevitable biases that arise due to our limited cognitive resources.\nWhy do we have an ability for generating stories from sparse data but also struggle at evaluating these stories against the evidence, sometimes letting a compelling story trump the truth?\n**Better decisions**\nUsing classic legal cases to show the dangers of over-simplified reasoning and cognitive biases, you'll understand different ways for learning and improving & tools to help you make better judgements.\n\n**The Speaker**\n\n**David Lagnado**\n\nDavid Lagnado is a cognitive psychologist and professor at the University College London. His research focuses on the psychological processes that underlie human learning, reasoning and decision-making. A major theme is the central role played by causal models in cognition. David investigates how people learn causal models from uncertain data, and how they use these models to draw inferences and make decisions. David has extended this work to legal decision-making, showing that people use their causal knowledge to organise evidence and make decisions. Another key theme is the interplay between causal thinking and judgements of responsibility. David examines how people use causal models to attribute credit and blame in moral and legal contexts.\n\n**Tickets can only be bought on our Ticket Tailor page.

You'll also find a highly recommended selection of burgers to choose from and you'll be close to a number of restaurants nearby.\nOne of the few traditional pubs in Kings Cross, the Star of Kings boasts a large beer garden and classic arcade games downstairs.#\n\n**FAQs – Pub psychology events**\n\n**Where can I get tickets?**\n**\\*Important info\\*. Tickets can only be bought on our Ticket Tailor page. See further info here:** [tickettailor.com/events/conn8cting/1826822/r/meetup1](https://www.tickettailor.com/events/conn8cting/1826822/r/meetup1)\n\n**Who attends these events?**\n**This event is open to anyone regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender.** **All age groups are welcome to attend our events. Whether you're at the start of your career or an experienced practitioner, this is the place for you.** Many attendees have a professional interest working (or aspiring to work) in psychology, neuroscience, healthcare, counselling, wellness and wellbeing, education or related fields. You're also welcome to come along if you have a personal interest in the subject matter. This is an ideal way to expand your social and professional network.\n\n**Will you sell tickets on the door?**\nNo! All our tickets are sold before the event so please don't arrive on the day as you'll be turned away. Pub psychology events are popular and tend to sell-out. Please get a ticket in advance!\n\n**I’m not sure if I’ll arrive in time after work. Should I still come?**\nYes! If you have a ticket, please come whenever you can (ideally before the talk begins). For pub psychology events, **talks begin 30 minutes after the scheduled start time.** This gives you time to settle in, network with others and grab a drink or food. **Please double check the event agenda on Ticket Tailor (the platform we use to sell tickets) as times vary depending on the event.**\n\n**Will I be able to socialise?**\nYes! You're welcome to come along if you've simply got a personal interest in the topics. Based on feedback, we’ve also added loads of new opportunities for professional networking. This event's ideal for those with a professional interest working (or aspire to work) in psychology, neuroscience, education, healthcare or related fields. It's a great way to expand your social and professional network. Many people attend alone and please do reach out if you want to be introduced to anyone or need support. For pub psychology events, we recommend arriving early for ice breakers. We’ll have a pub psychology quiz arranged in groups after the expert talk and there’s always a friendly group of us who’ll stay for drinks afterwards.\n\n**Are you on social media?**\nYes - we are!

Our morals come from God. Whatever our religious belief has been it has always been assumed that how we behave would be dictated from above and God’s appointed representatives on Earth will tell us what is right or wrong not only with that we do, but also with how we think. God has been the first and most important Thought Police in our lives.\n\n**Part 1**\nThe fact that all of the above may not quite wash with us in this new millennium is the subject of tonight’s talk and suggestions are invited as to:\n\n1. What makes us behave, comply and obey?\n2. How relevant is the religious control of our morals today?\n3. What alternatives can be discussed as a viable and effective way to control society?\n\n**Part 2**\nThe terms \"morals\" and \"ethics\" are sometimes used interchangeably in everyday conversation, but they denote distinct concepts. Whilst morals are personal principles of right and wrong, ethics are codes of conduct that members of a group, society or profession agree to follow.\n\n1. Do ethical considerations simply add to our individual moral values in determining what we consider to be the right or wrong thing to do?\n2. What happens if ethics and morals clash? (For instance, a journalist's code of ethics may require them to protect the anonymity of their sources whereas their own moral code may tell them that they should be honest and name those sources.)\n\nThese and other points are encouraged in tonight’s discussion bearing in mind, as always, the philosophical recommendations of our debates embodied in the four Cs outlined below..\n\n***\n\nAnyone can attend this session.

All age groups are welcome to attend our events. Whether you're at the start of your career or an experienced practitioner, this is the place for you.** Many attendees have a professional interest working (or aspiring to work) in psychology, neuroscience, healthcare, counselling, wellness and wellbeing, education or related fields. You're also welcome to come along if you have a personal interest in the subject matter. This is an ideal way to expand your social and professional network.\n\n**Will you sell tickets on the door?**\nNo! All our tickets are sold before the event so please don't arrive on the day as you'll be turned away. Pub psychology events are popular and tend to sell-out. Please get a ticket in advance!\n\n**I’m not sure if I’ll arrive in time after work. Should I still come?**\nYes! If you have a ticket, please come whenever you can (ideally before the talk begins). For pub psychology events, **talks begin 30 minutes after the scheduled start time.** This gives you time to settle in, network with others and grab a drink or food. **Please double check the event agenda on Ticket Tailor (the platform we use to sell tickets) as times vary depending on the event.**\n\n**Will I be able to socialise?**\nYes! You're welcome to come along if you've simply got a personal interest in the topics. Based on feedback, we’ve also added loads of new opportunities for professional networking. This event's ideal for those with a professional interest working (or aspire to work) in psychology, neuroscience, education, healthcare or related fields. It's a great way to expand your social and professional network. Many people attend alone and please do reach out if you want to be introduced to anyone or need support. For pub psychology events, we recommend arriving early for ice breakers. We’ll have a pub psychology quiz arranged in groups after the expert talk and there’s always a friendly group of us who’ll stay for drinks afterwards.\n\n**Are you on social media?**\nYes - we are!

Occasionally, attendees will be asked to watch, read or listen to a short piece of material in advance of the session (as the 'stimulus' for discussion), but this will be minimal and will be made clear in the description of the session.\n\nWe ask for donations of £1 per session from those who can afford to pay to cover the costs of the Meetup subscription.

What are personality disorders?**\n‘Personality disorder’ (PD) might be the most controversial & subjective of current psychiatric diagnoses. It’s about a pattern of behaviour & inner experience going against cultural norms which are persistent, pervasive, and pathological. But what does this mean for the person or those around them? These experiences are ‘clustered’ around certain specific diagnoses such as ‘antisocial personality disorder’.\n**2\\. Why are personality disorders controversial?**\nAre people with this diagnosis ‘mad, bad or deviant’? And if either of the latter two, does this have anything to do with psychiatry or medicine at all?\nWhy have highly stigmatising titles (‘borderline’, ‘narcissistic’, ‘schizoid’) re-entered modern discourse in an unhelpful way? Is there a convincing link between symptoms and diagnoses themselves?\n**3.** **What’s happening now?**\nThe last 10-15 years have seen a huge groundswell of engagement by people given the ‘personality disorder’ title.\nIn 2019 the WHO International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) restructured the way PD was classified into a system of severity & a new diagnosis of ‘complex post-traumatic stress disorder’. Has this caused a crisis within the definition & clinical work?\n**4\\. What can be done?**\nIs psychiatry being asked to solve a social problem of people who don’t easily ‘fit’ into our communities & are often marginalised or ostracised? Is the ‘solution’ medicine, talking therapy or something else?\n\n**\\*Important info\\*. Tickets can only be bought on our Ticket Tailor page.

He has consulted on forensic mental health issues for NHS England and the London Violence Reduction Programme, as well as for films and television shows, including the hit BBC drama series, Killing Eve and the recent HBO/BBC black comedy Rain Dogs . In 2020, he published a book based on his research and experiences in psychopathy, Making a Psychopath: My Journey into 7 Dangerous minds.\n\n**The Venue**\nWe have exclusive use of the green room (upstairs) at the Star of Kings pub.

See further info here: [Select tickets – Pub Psychology: Pain, addiction & the opioid mystery: The secrets behind what hurts you – Star of Kings Pub](https://www.tickettailor.com/events/conn8cting/1809060)\n\n**Who attends these events?**\n**This event is open to anyone regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender.** We welcome a range of age ranges - most attendees are in their 20s and 30s. The idea is to learn about psychology, neuroscience and healthcare from experts, while meeting likeminded people. Come along if you have an interest in the subject matter and want to network with likeminded people. The event's ideal for anyone with a personal or professional interest working in (or aspires to work in) psychology, neuroscience, education, healthcare or related fields. It's a great way to expand your social and professional network.\n\n**Will you sell tickets on the door?**\nNo! All our tickets are sold before the event so please don't arrive on the day as you'll be turned away. Pub psychology events are popular and tend to sell-out. Please get a ticket in advance!\n\n**I’m not sure if I’ll arrive in time after work. Should I still come?**\nYes! If you have a ticket, please come whenever you can (ideally before the talk begins). For pub psychology events, **talks begin 30 minutes after the scheduled start time.** This gives you time to settle in, network with others and grab a drink or food. **Please double check the event agenda on Ticket Tailor (the platform we use to sell tickets) as times vary depending on the event.**\n\n**Will I be able to socialise?**\nYes! You're welcome to come along if you've simply got a personal interest in the topics. Based on feedback, we’ve also added loads of new opportunities for professional networking. This event's ideal for those with a professional interest working (or aspire to work) in psychology, neuroscience, education, healthcare or related fields. It's a great way to expand your social and professional network. Many people attend alone and please do reach out if you want to be introduced to anyone or need support. For pub psychology events, we recommend arriving early for ice breakers. We’ll have a pub psychology quiz arranged in groups after the expert talk and there’s always a friendly group of us who’ll stay for drinks afterwards.\n\n**Are you on social media?**\nYes - we are!

Progress is its form rather than making progress one of its features.” Ludwig Wittgenstein\n\nWhen thinking about ideas and the thinkers that produce them we often make implicit assumptions about the benefits of the progress that these ideas contribute to. What kinds of progress do we want or need? Can all progress be sustainable? Is progress always beneficial? Is progress just the evolution of complex systems? Should we privilege one state of such a system over another?\n\nIn this session we will be discussing these questions and related topics including a brief exercise to imagine ourselves in different times and in different cultures.\n\nSupporting Video Links:\n**[John Gray on progress](https://share.google/H4KfNaAufGUJVEmBk)**\n**[Rupert Read on Progress and Wittgenstein](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEPcQ6sIOTY)**\n**[Monk debate on progress](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUmBWB54riE) [Long]**\n\nInteresting background reading:\n**[If we don't rethink the concept of progress, it could point society toward oblivion - Macleans.ca](https://macleans.ca/facebook-instant-articles/if-we-dont-rethink-the-concept-of-progress-it-could-point-society-toward-oblivion/)**\n**[Do we need a better understanding of 'progress'?](https://www.bbc.co.uk/future/article/20220615-do-we-need-a-better-understanding-of-progress)**\n**[Is 'Progress' Good for Humanity? - The Atlantic](https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2014/09/the-industrial-revolution-and-its-discontents/379781/)**\n**[When is Progress Really Progress? | Absolute Engagement Blog](https://absoluteengagement.com/blog/when-is-progress-really-progress)**\n**[Do Human Progress Trends Justify the Status Quo?](https://humanprogress.org/do-human-progress-trends-justify-the-status-quo/)**\n**[Kate Soper – The growth agenda is no longer feasible.

No experience in philosophy or knowledge of the subject is required in advance. Just come along and enjoy. Our events use the the 4Cs of community philosophy:\n\n* **Caring** for others, making space for their contributions\n* **Collaborating** to get a better mutual understanding rather than scoring points\n* **Critically** assessing what we say, clarifying what is meant and asking what reasons support assertions\n* **Creatively** coming up with alternative perspectives, rather than dogmatically sticking to our initial positions\n\nWe welcome everyone of a wide range of ages, social and educational backgrounds etc. Don't worry if you don't have a qualification in philosophy - almost no-one does. Occasionally, attendees will be asked to watch, read or listen to a short piece of material in advance of the session (as the 'stimulus' for discussion), but this will be minimal and will be made clear in the description of the session.\n\nWe ask for donations of £1 per session from those who can afford to pay to cover the costs of the Meetup subscription. First timers are exempt. Don't feel obliged to pay if you can't afford it - or pay less. Feel free to put £5 to cover five sessions or however you want to donate - this is left entirely up to you.","price":"£1","unit":null,"currency":null,"company":null,"language":"en","online":1,"infoType":1,"biz":"community","postDate":"1757304864000","seoName":"what-has-progress-ever-given-us","supplement":null,"author":null,"originalPrice":null,"soldCnt":null,"topSeller":null,"source":1,"cardType":null,"action":"https://uk.ok.com/en/city-eaton-bray/cate-classes-lessons/what-has-progress-ever-given-us-6365502268365112/","localIds":"173","cateId":null,"tid":null,"logParams":{"tid":"5e2562b0-9e44-44d2-9f67-4ed28b819b9f","sid":"c1105ad9-bd6a-4633-9688-312c0b7dede7"},"attrParams":{},"addDate":1757304864716,"categoryName":null,"postCode":null,"secondCateCode":"classes-lessons","kycTag":null,"pictureUrls":null,"isFavorite":false},{"category":"6503,6506","location":"12 St Andrew's Rd, Headington, Oxford OX3 9DL, UK","infoId":"6365487655078512","pictureUrl":"https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/b/9/3/7/highres_529487415.jpeg","videos":null,"title":"Looks","content":"Why is it that advertisers rarely tell us details of their products? Instead, they present an image of a celebrity or happy family, with the implication that we should look 'like them' It is the power of The Spectacle, something the Situationist movement, active from the 1950’s to 1970’s banged on about. Fifty years later, do their views, on the power of the image, still resonate? Has social media turbo charged the phenomenon?\n\nBut who were the Situationists? Many core messages from the movement were delivered by the philosopher Guy Debord, in his 1967 book ‘The society of the Spectacle’. To set out, what at times may appear a willfully obscure ideology. Here is a Situationist quote:\n*Just as early industrial capitalism moved the focus of existence from being to having, post-industrial culture has moved that focus from having to appearing.*\nThe shift to how we appear, indeed 'looks' as heavily curated, for photos, TikTok shorts, box set series, facebook and instagram to Hollywood movies, but also through AI texts, dominates now far more than it did in the 1960’s. We increasingly live our lives, one could argue, through representations of it, rather than first-hand experiences of it.\n\nImagine a portrait gallery where hundreds of people are looking at a few individual depictions of people, ....rather than at the real people surrounding them.\nImagine a bustling Park where a child is clicking the buttons on a game about visiting a park on their tablet whilst all around the trees are dropping leaves, the lake refracts and ripples, and children run about laughing and playing together.\nImagine watching a sunset on your TV whilst one is occurring live outside your window.\nSo, is Situationism just an obsession with easy imagery? No. Here is another Situationist quote -\n*The spectacle is not a collection of images, but a social relation between people, mediated by images.*\n\nAt a music festival you may expect the grittiness of camping, seeing bands live, making use of sub-par bathroom facilities etc to be direct and visceral. Yet even here, is the ‘Spectacle’ mediated? Are crowds largely performing their crowd roles in the way bands perform their sets? Is everyone dutifully taking selfies showing themselves in front of the structures set up with the purpose of people having selfie opportunities? Is life increasingly about a step back from direct experience and more about acting in a way we have seen the spectacle depict for us? Is it less about being and more about appearing to be? The ‘image’ remaining essential to how everyone feels about themselves and others. Has the 'look' become the experience? Even philosophers could be more interested in appearing philosophical than experiencing, un-fettered, the full range of human ideas and potential.\n\nThe Situationist ideology, though it was never clearly and consistently articulated, was also big on nurture rather than nature. Take this quote –\n*You are what you do. If you do boring, stupid, monotonous work, chances are you\\\\'ll end up boring, stupid and monotonous.*\nSituationists were appalled by the way work and indeed leisure was increasingly commodified.\nTake ‘wild swimming’. Two decades ago those who jumped into random outdoor watercourses were mostly oddball thrill seekers. These days it is often far from ‘wild’.\nThe Situationists would likely ask: When ‘wild swimmers’ go swimming, are they feeling the cold water on their skin; the weeds, mud and rocks under their feet etc. Are they really conscious of their situation. Or are they reveling in fitting an image, a spectacle, the correct look, of health and adventure?\n\nPerhaps it is truly Epicurean to reject the fakery of the spectacle and live instead more simply and happily and truer to ourselves?\n\nAnd what would E.P. Thompson have to say on working class collusion in not just attaining things for material improvement, but to look the part. How we all no longer simply aspire to own a posh frock or classy shirt, but clothing with a label emblazoned across the front of it. A statement of slavish adherence to the image portrayed by wearing Nike, The North Face or Tommy Hilfiger. A kind of visual reference point of who we are or want to be seen as. A substitute for genuine emancipation. A view that Situationists would say was driven by the need for constant market expansion, making us no more than kens or Barbies, adorned with accessories ,,,,but ultimately empty.\n\nHere are some philosophical questions we could tackle on this-\n\n1.Are second hand (metaphysical?) relationships to the world, and to others in it, as meaningful as directly experienced and/or unmediated encounters?\n2.\na) Do we think in images?\nb) Are images reference points to aid thinking?\nc) Do images dictate behavior and stop us thinking and acting creatively and meaningfully?\n\n3.Is the way we see products, politicians, scientists, even the whole concept of truth, about how it is spun?\n\n4\\. Has the explosion of imagery in the last hundred years driven a fundamental shift in how we see ourselves and others?\n\n5\\. Can a conscious change of situation \\(hence their name\\) through a jarring of expected 'norms' help us be authentic\\, rather than shaped by the spectacle presented to us?\n\nAnd for a short youtube intro to the Situationist movement. see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGJr08N-auM\n\nThis is a social event where we explore topics together. You don't need to be a philosophy expert, just interested, and prepared to play nicely.","price":"Free","unit":null,"currency":null,"company":null,"language":"en","online":1,"infoType":1,"biz":"community","postDate":"1757303723000","seoName":"looks","supplement":null,"author":null,"originalPrice":null,"soldCnt":null,"topSeller":null,"source":1,"cardType":null,"action":"https://uk.ok.com/en/city-eaton-bray/cate-classes-lessons/looks-6365487655078512/","localIds":"173","cateId":null,"tid":null,"logParams":{"tid":"521264f2-0e00-40fb-aa70-ba4d579a9810","sid":"c1105ad9-bd6a-4633-9688-312c0b7dede7"},"attrParams":{},"addDate":1757303723052,"categoryName":null,"postCode":null,"secondCateCode":"classes-lessons","kycTag":null,"pictureUrls":null,"isFavorite":false}],"localIds":"1,1912","pageTitle":"Classes & Lessons in Eaton Bray","topCateCode":"community","catePath":"6503,6506","cateName":"Community,Classes & Lessons","breadCrumbSeo":{"type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://uk.ok.com/en/city-eaton-bray/","@type":"ListItem"},{"position":2,"name":"Community","item":"https://uk.ok.com/en/city-eaton-bray/cate-community/","@type":"ListItem"},{"position":3,"name":"Classes & Lessons","item":"http://uk.ok.com/en/city-eaton-bray/cate-classes-lessons/","@type":"ListItem"}],"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@context":"https://schema.org"},"cateCode":"classes-lessons","total":33,"sortList":[{"sortName":"Best Match","sortId":0},{"sortName":"Newest First","sortId":1},{"sortName":"Lowest Price","sortId":3},{"sortName":"Highest Price","sortId":4}],"breadCrumb":[{"name":"Home","link":"https://uk.ok.com/en/city-eaton-bray/"},{"name":"Community","link":"https://uk.ok.com/en/city-eaton-bray/cate-community/"},{"name":"Classes & Lessons","link":null}],"tdk":{"type":"tdk","title":"54 Classes & Lessons in England lowest at $1.0+ | ok.com","desc":"Find 54 Classes & Lessons for sale in England.
