\"\"<\/a>Well, despite the excitment and chaos of a minor earthquake (which don’t phase those of us who sleep through them – see previous earthquake entry<\/a>..), I made it to Halesowen College <\/a>today to talk about various exciting things: thanks for the warm welcome.<\/em><\/div>\n
<\/em><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The first session, on Nietzsche<\/a>‘s Beyond Good and Evil,<\/a> <\/em>intriguing – as this can be quite a heavy topic – but I think we made some progress… The essay at http:\/\/w<\/a>ww.mala.bc.ca\/~johnstoi\/introser\/nietzs.htm<\/a> may give some extra food for thought. And of course the works of my esteemed colleague Dr Roy Jackson can illuminate on the links between Nietzsche and Islam<\/a>, or help you begin to study Nietzsche<\/a>…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

In the second session we talked (mainly me actually) about moral dilemmas (such as those at http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/1\/hi\/magazine\/4954856.stm<\/a>) and tried to think we might actually face – and the small decisions we make everyday – and their moral implications (click HERE <\/a>for more on cheap clothes and their implications). The Omelas short story can be followed up HERE<\/a>.<\/div>\n

For those who thought I was a little tough on Utilitarianism (I have been accused of this) – you can redress the balance at http:\/\/www.utilitarian.net\/<\/a> <\/div>\n
