The Denver Socrates Cafe Meetup Group

Join us as we meet each Thursday to "seek truth by our own lights." No regular attendance or preparation required. We ask people to speak their own mind rather that just quote the thinking of someone else. We then take turns playing Socrates by asking questions.

Another Socrates Cafe group meets each Friday, 6 pm, at Panera Bread (Hospitality Room), 13th & Grant here in Denver. No RSVP is required for that group, just show up. The rules of the Panera group are more difficult to figure out since they pretend that they have no rules. :)
