  • PHI 200 Week 2 DQ 1 Ethics and Relativism
  • Our text discusses the challenge relativism
    presents to various ethical and religious
    viewpoints. Consider a specific moral question
    which might make it difficult to accept the
    relativist's response. State the moral issue
    involved, and provide an explanation as to why
    you think a relativist might have problem giving
    a justified response to it.

  • PHI 200 Week 2 DQ 2 Animal Rights
  • Do human beings have any obligations to other
    animals, in terms of their treatment? If it is
    wrong to treat animals cruelly, why is it not
    wrong to eat them? Explain if, and how, you think
    humans can find a balance between treating
    animals ethically while also raising them for
    food and for other reasons, such as the testing
    of pharmaceuticals.

  • PHI 200 Week 3 DQ 1 The Limits of Skepticism
  • Can a person be skeptical about everything, or
    are there limits? Is it possible to doubt
    everything, or almost everything? Are there
    beliefs you possess that cannot be challenged or
    shown to be false? How might the skeptic respond
    to your claim that such a belief cannot be
    doubted? Identify one such specific belief and
    present your response to the skeptic. (If you
    don't have such a belief, explain how one could
    live while

  • PHI 200 Week 3 Written Assignment Final Paper
  • For this rough draft, you must identify a
    specific philosophical issue having to do with
    ethics, epistemology, or religion. You will need
    to find a topic over which there is a useful
    debate, in order to present both sides of the
    debate. Here, you will not need to indicate what
    your own position is, relative to the issue you
    will be doing that, however, in the final version

  • PHI 200 Week 4 DQ 1 Proof of God's Existence
  • After reading about the various proofs of the
    existence of God, identify which of these
    arguments seems to be the best, and explain why
    you think so. Complete your response by
    reflecting on why philosophers have sought for
    thousands of years to provide such proofs, and
    whether it is necessary to do so.

  • If you were asked to defeat the computer in the
    Turing Test (described in our book), what types
    of questions would you ask it? Explain why you
    think these questions would be the type to
    "reveal" the computer to be a computer? Why would
    these responses have to be given by a human
    being? (If you don't think there are such
    questions, you will need to explain what, if
    anything, shows that human beings are unique, and
    how it shows that.)

    thought about in our course, select one topic
    that you thought was interesting, challenging,
    difficult, aggravating, new, or provocative.

    you have learned about it and how it made you
