PHILOSOPHY -101-01
Kierkegaard- “without risk their is no faith” I agree with this a lot because you really are taking a risk to believe in something that you have no proof in being able to see or may not even be there
Pascal- what I took from the reading was pascal saying that we exist so god exist and we shouldn’t question that and I disagree with him a lot I think it’s okay to have questions and I would never tell someone they’re wrong for believing something differently
Malcom reminded me of when Nagel said we can never be sure about if someone is seeing things the same way we do in Malcom case their is no way to prove we feel things the same way
I 100% agree with Malcom about what he is saying about feeling pain no one can prove that we feel pain the same way as someone else does
Russell- I like how he brings up that everyone feels pain and has feelings but we can never experience how they’re experiencing It and if it’s different from how we do
Ponty- he addressed that all of our behaviors are learned and I think that’s so true that’s why people may act so much like the family they are in and so differently from others
Ponty- I agree when he said that the body suffers with the mind. I believe this is true because how you feel can cause impact on your mind and body such as when you’re made and you make a fist or when you’re embarrassed and you blush
Nagel is very interesting because everything he said their is no way to prove he is wrong no matter how much you look at someone you’ll never be inside their head and know exactly what is happening all you have is your own perspective
Nagel has been my favorite read so far because I personally am always wondering how people see things and the perspective they are seeing It in it’s very interesting how it’s possible everyone could see the same thing but see it differently in their mind
Here is one hand, And here is another. There are at least two external objects in the world. Therefore, an external world exists.
He is trying to prove that their is an external world.
Is Stace saying we could be very strongly be believing something is one way when really it’s wrong we just don’t know the rest of what could exist outside of what we know?
I had a hard time understanding Staces claim because I felt like it’s sort of obvious we don’t know things exist if we aren’t experiencing them?? How things “no longer”exist if we don’t know about them?? Wouldn’t they still be existing..?
Elgin explains that sometimes we don’t need to know that everything is true and in science their are examples that may make something true because it’s “true enough”
I think Elgin’s claim is that we grow up believing certain things are true without really knowing if they are. “True enough” would describe Elgin because we are never really certain without knowing the entire background behind the truth
I think unger means that most people are uncertain about a lot of things that people claim to be certain about but once they’re truly certain they can move on..
Socrates kind of wisdom is rare I believe a lot of people don’t like to admit when they’re wrong and being able to openly admit and learn is extremely wise no one wants to be wrong and people today will argue that they aren’t
