    • “ It was an exciting first meeting! Free-flowing ideas, respectful disagreement, excellent synthesis by the organizer. And for a philosophical newB, very welcoming. ”
    • “ I had my "Metaphysics Over Coffee" over jasmine tea and thought it was delicious. The meeting was great too. I already found a couple of Wilber books including the one you mentioned, Johannes. In one meeting we rid the world of all evil! Just takes a few good philosophers. Next time let's improve upon reality! Maybe show each other how sick we are. Whatever comes to mind. I heard my voice echoing in that cafe. Does that mean something? Seriously, yall. We need more homespun pickle barrel philosophizers. Bring all yer cultural junk to dump on us. I'm a suthern boy postmodern metanarrativist. Anyone up for creating a new religion or a new psychological school of philosophical thought? And don't forget to bring all of your realities. We'll sort through them all...with gloves. :-o ”
