Philosophy Now Forum

Let us know how your assignment went, you know, with this thread being over a year and a half old.

1.) Yes, I do.
2.) No.Why should it be?
3.) Yes, we are, even without any free will.
4.) As long as the science is assumed as the expert there's no way to escape form its criteria of "the correctness".

...this is worth revisiting (thank you, Mr. Glus, for resurrecting the thread).

-----

1.) Do you believe in God?

Yep.

2.) Do you believe that there is some ultimate meaning or purpose to human life?

Yep.

3.) Do you believe that everyone is morally responsible for him or herself?

Yep.

4.) Is the scientific account of the world essentially correct?

Sorta, kinda, mebbe.

Here is the four questions survey...

1.) Do you believe in God?

Absolutely.

2.) Do you believe that there is some ultimate meaning or purpose to human life?

Of course.

3.) Do you believe that everyone is morally responsible for him or herself?

Certainly.

4.) Is the scientific account of the world essentially correct?

Which one?

1 Yes 2 Yes 3 Yes 4 If by scientific you mean Newton's science, no. If by scientific you mean Descartes, Husserl, Bergson, Austin etc, then yes. I believe this is the crux of the matter, that physical science has to change (and Schelling's efforts did nothing towards this goal).
