Street Epistemology Training – How to talk to Religious People

London Black Atheists will be at Conway Hall for a Street Epistemology training event conducted by Bill Flavell, who has recently been to several West African countries teaching Street Epistemology.

Street Epistemology is based on Socratic principles (you simply ask very gentle questions) and it was developed by Professor Peter Boghossian. The purpose of Street Epistemology is to have a way of having a civil, rational conversation with Religious people that gets them to examine why they believe what they believe (usually because of faith) and to question if faith is a reliable means of finding the truth (i.e. is faith a reliable epistemology). People who genuinely want to know what is true will hopefully start to think for themselves and begin on the long hard road out of superstitious beliefs and into a more rational point of view.
