My Philosophy Revisited

Revisit and Reconstruct
Please revisit the answers that you supplied to the “my philosophy” questions that your submitted at the start of the term:

1. What is the good, right, or ethical thing to do?

2. Who are you? How do you know that you are the same person today that you were when you were five years old?

3. Are you free to choose your destiny? Where you always determined, necessarily, to enroll at CSUSM and PHIL 332 this term?

4. Is there a “God”? As part of your answer to this question be sure to define “God.”

5. Is there a purpose to life? If so, what should be our purpose? Do you think that life is more valuable if one seeks a meaning? Why or why not?

Apply a Theory
Select at least one of philosophical readings we have discussed and apply it to your philosophy. You can note how you held the same view as one of the theories or you can show how your theory stands in opposition.
