CFIC Toronto Hangout (Thursday)

As I looked under CFI’s Mission, Vision, and Values, the phrase ‘community’ stood out in the opening line. Then, I found it repeated seven more times, all within a short description.

Elsewhere, CFI informs us that we run ‘open’ and ‘friendly’ discussions in ‘safe and hospitable’ environments for everyone. And 'Critical Thinking' is, you might say, the backbone for starting any discussion.

But while we all know what thinking is, how is critical thinking different? Especially in matters that are not quantitatively measurable?

As humans, thankfully, we are born curious – we probably won’t have learnt to crawl on four to experience our body and the world around us. We all are capable of being forever-curious – and therefore seeing through the evidence methodically. That is a good start for any talk, no matter how complex it may seem. If it’s a human problem, we may not solve it, but we can surely think through it critically. That’s a big and hopeful first step!

Tantalizing? Let’s Talk!
