Would you want to know if you were betrayed by a friend or lover you are no longer close with?

Would you want to read an honest assessment of you by people whose judgment you respect, but who have no connection to you, even if the answer might hurt?

Join Portland Philosophy Table for a guided conversation about whether truth matters for its own sake, and whether we are ever better off not knowing. We’ll explore concrete examples together, with room for different views. No philosophy background or advance reading needed.

Tuesday, November 10, 2026, 6–7:30 p.m.
Tentative location: Northwest Library, Community Room 1B, 2030 NW Pettygrove Street, Portland.

Free and open to everyone. Group size is ten people, including the host.

Hosted by Portland Philosophy Table.
