Are you prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse? Join us and find out!

What is an apocalypse? According to the dictionary, an apocalypse is the complete final destruction of the world, as described in the biblical book of Revelation, or an event involving destruction or damage on an awesome or catastrophic scale. Thankfully most individuals never experience an apocalypse. But, what would we do if one happened to us? This class will explore ethics before, during, and after an apocalyptic situation. We will discuss potentially real and some fantastical situations too, hint, a zombie apocalypse! We will examine theories about human nature being good or bad. We will also look at why some people make heroic sacrifices and decisions and others make very selfish ones. We will look at some real-world disasters that were apocalyptic for those involved and discover how those individuals dealt with life-and-death situations.

This class will also discuss the trends of “prepping” and “survivalism”. Students will be presented with opportunities to make decisions in simulated apocalyptic situations and then debrief and discuss their thoughts and choices after the simulation. You will also learn some great practical skills you can use. Join us for this fun, thought-provoking class!
