by

Hope’s Cafe Theme in February: Atheism … what do they believe? Come and listen to Al Stewart on ‘why I live without a deity and the importance of compost’ at Hope’s Cafe, Norwood, on 27 February 2019.

Let’s talk about the new Australia! Come and share your thoughts over a meal to discuss your ideas and experiences Come and share your thoughts over a meal to discuss your ideas and experiences about the Australia we live in now! You are invited to become part of a group, aiming to encourage friendship across creed, culture and tradition; an opportunity to participate in building new community; and a chance to share questions and discoveries (in a safe space) as we reflect on our own tradition /transition?

  • What is our knowledge, expectations of ourselves and the different creeds, cultures and traditions around us?
  • What are our questions about the culture; the faith tradition; the belief-system we or our neighbours represent?
  • What are your own challenges and your own experiences about great moments and complex challenges of your / some else’s beliefs?
  • We aim to work with the concept of respecting all questions and answers while we take time to get to know the similarities and differences we share.
  • Conversations will take place in a safe space where we can all listen and learn from another.
  • A meal will be available for purchase each time for $10 (please feel free to donate more towards those refugees in strife who have lost their Centrelink income).

Theme in February: Atheism……what do they believe? Come and listen to Al Stewart on ‘why I live without a deity and the importance of compost’. Some believe that atheists are more scientific in their approach to life, some believe that the values held by atheists have less moral basis than those with a committed faith practise….what do you believe?
