The Center for Values and Social Policy invites you to a Think! talk by Philosophy Professor Michael Huemer titled "Why We Are Irrational About Politics."
Why doesn't everyone agree with you about politics? The best explanation is they are being irrational and not, for example, that political issues are especially difficult or we lack sufficient information to resolve them. Huemer will discuss why people are especially irrational about this particular subject, and how and why they adopt the beliefs they want to adopt. The bad news: You're probably being irrational, too.
Thursday, Sept. 21, 7:30 to 9 p.m.
Education building, room 220
