If anyone is interested in live debates on philosophy, religion, politics, and many other issues then you'll love Intelligence Squared. I was told about this site from Anthony Grayling while he visited Perth for the writers festival.
I know it's only an online forum, but there's lots of differing points of views from "everyday Australians". Some raise good points, although many of the ways of thinking are "I'm not racist but..." or a misunderstanding of what racism actually means.
