Meets biweekly from 3-6 PM at the Center for the Study of World Religions.
In this special TWP&F Reading Group meeting Dr. Christine Webb will lead a discussion entitled: 
The Arrogant Ape: Unlearning The Myth of Human Exceptionalism & Why it Matters

Darwin considered humans one part of the web of life, not the apex of a natural hierarchy. Yet today, many maintain that we are the most intelligent, virtuous, successful species that ever lived. This mistaken belief enables us to exploit the earth towards our own exclusive ends, throwing us into a perilous planetary imbalance. But is this view and way of life inevitable? In this series of workshops, we’ll explore human exceptionalism as an ideology that relies more on human culture than our biology, more on delusion and faith than on evidence. 

Subsequent meetings are: 4/9, 4/23
