    Scholastic Philosophy Reading Group FAQ

    1. What subjects will the books be on?

    Scholastic philosophy, but we're open to non-scholastic books.

    2. Will you provide copies of the excerpts, essays, and books?

    Most of the time.

    3. How much do I have to know about scholastic philosophy to join?

    See the poll here for examples of books we might start with.

    4. Can I suggest a text for the group?

    Sure. Just PM me, or post about it in the reading group subforum.

    5. What should I do if I have other questions about the reading group?

    Ask in this thread.

    6. When do we start?

    To be announced.

    7. How do I sign up?

    PM me the email address you want to use, and I'll invite you to the group email.

    8. Is there anything else I should know?

    We're planning to hold monthly voice chats via Discord (unless someone knows of better software).

    1) Do I have to show up for the voice chats?
    2) What if I'm an atheist?
    3) How long will I have to read each book?

    9. Do I have to show up for the voice chats?

    No. 

    It really helps if you do, though. It's much easier to get people talking when they're in a room together. 

    10. What if I'm an atheist?

    If you're asking whether we're disallowing atheists or something like that, we're not.

    11. How long will I have to read each book?

    Two months, usually.

    If anybody else wants to sign up, now is the time. We start "the two month clock" tomorrow.
