My five-year old daughter lied to me. I’m quite used to her lying, because she lies to me in a funny way many times: “Daddy, I won’t annoy you any longer, I promise” while jumping on my stomach once again, I reply “Stop it, don’t do it again, It hurts”, but I expect and want her to do it again.

In times of crisis, such as the times we are struggling to endure now, one can easily see the need for quick problem solving. When the pot breaks, we reach for glue.

The measures taken by the Czech government to try to curb the spread of the coronavirus also affect the activities here at the Centre for Ethics. For example, we are now not able to meet each other physically, and web-based alternatives replace our seminars. If someone would want a proof that thinking is not a mental activity, or that thinking is not done by the brain, this is it: the physical presence of others is important in philosophical thinking, and nothing else can fully substitute it.
The planned workshop on moral change, scheduled for May this year, has been postponed. We will publish the new date on this website, once we have it.
