January 9 - 20th Century Philosophy: Phenomenology - Edmund Husserl

Do you think that the sciences ask all the best questions because they are concerned only with objective reality, and that things that are real can be objects for the sciences only? Do you think that philosophy just makes things up to explain what science cannot explain? Do you think that philosophy is disconnected from everyday life? Are phenomena ideas, or objects, or both, or neither?

Are these questions interesting to you? Then come and join us here at the Lake Country Unitarian Universalist Church, at the corner of County Roads K & E in Hartland, Wisconsin, classroom #3, from 5:30pm–7:00pm, EVERY OTHER WEDNESDAY: January 9th & 23rd, February 6th & 20th, March 6th & 20th, to explore what it means to know what you think you know. Thirty dollars ($30) is suggested as a donation to LCUUC. Previous completion of philosophy courses is not required. All are welcome.

Register for this class by calling 262-369-1703 or by e-mail at admin@lcuuc.org. LCUUC members can also donate their registration fee by going on line to the church’s pledge and donation web-site.
