Filosofia

http://filosofia08uk.blogspot.com/

The idea is to use the blog to talk about philosophy. The focus of the blog is philosophy in relation to current events, so each time a blog post begins, it will use as its starting point an event from the news, and develop a philosophical argument from that.
