A friendly space for exploring diverse viewpoints, the Philosophy Café aims to facilitate genuine dialogue, mutual understanding, and self-reflection among the Salisbury community.

The Café is free and open to the public. It meets once a month during the school year, with a new question for every session. It is sponsored by the Philosophy Department and moderated by Philosophy Department faculty.

Questions from past meetings include:

• Can we really understand each other?
• What, if anything, separates a human from a machine?
• Do we need religion for spirituality?
• Does one’s worth depend on their contribution to society?
• Does true love exist? Would the world be better without suffering?
• Is nature inherently valuable?
• What makes something authentic?
• Can we reinvent ourselves?
