Do you let him in? Last time he showed up he wouldn’t stop talking about Jordan Peterson and Ayn Rand. The other members were clearly getting upset and you got multiple complaints after the session ended. He has low self esteem and a speech impediment and his mom wants him to get out more, he considers you one of his only friends.

Yes. Encourage the other members to be understanding and speak to him encouraging him to broaden his experiences. People like this need to be spoken to and understood; they are sheltered and afraid, not stupid. He just wants to be accepted, and we should help facilitate that naturally.

If he really likes Jordan Peterson, get him to read Marcus Aurelius, and Seneca, because 12 rules for life is a watered down version of Stoicism. Then you can urge him on the path to the Romans and Greeks, and have something interesting to talk about and he can become a more well-rounded person. Also, the fact that he brought pizza, to me, means that he is at least trying to be a good guy

You should have brought some fruit salad and guacamole. This is a vegan book club and we only drink sugar-free, artificial-flavor-free Tibetan Spring Water.

Do you guys really think I forgot about them when I made my comment? If one bases their worldview on something as childish as the existence of a god then I don't see how they can be considered real philosophers.

>the existence of a creator does not fall under the purview of philosophy
>belief in a creator is childish
>belief in a creator precludes critical thinking about the world of the believer

belief in a creator is as if not more valid than the rejection of a creator, seeing as believing in ex nihilo creation requires one to disregard the fundamental laws of physics.
