Hi, Y'all!

This week in Philosophy Club, we'll discuss Chapter 1 from C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity. The selection is pretty short, it originated from a radio show Lewis did, and it basically goes over his argument that humans have some Moral Law (or Natural Law) that motivates their ability to quarrel about right and wrong. 

There are a few options for this selection:

• First, there's the PDF which I've attached (6 pages in big font).
• Second, I also found this YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmHXYhpEDfM&list=PL9boiLqIabFgG4BA7kQbZs3FDHNWtWJ4i&ab_channel=CSLewisDoodle) that presents the same argument (10 minutes!).Perfectly good alternative if you don't feel like reading, plus the playlist covers some extra chapters in the book if you want to dive deeper.
• Third, I just want to add that I found the entire book's pdf online, so if you really like Lewis, you can come back to it and see what else he has to say in it.

I look forward to seeing y'all at 6 p.m. in MAK B-1-138 this Thursday, Oct. 3.
