In this class we will ask ‘what is philosophy?’ in the hopes of defending the importance of this discipline for the individual and society. In this endeavor we shall trek through the history of philosophy while unpacking some of the major issues and problems in metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, logic and politics. Furthermore we will address the perennial problems of the good life, personal identity, authenticity and social responsibility.

Descartes' meditations and stupid blogs
This is my second post of the day because the first time I tried to blog, the internet dropped and it didn't save, thus the stupid blog title. Now, Descartes' doubt brings me to question whether this was somehow my fault. According to Descartes I am imperfect as opposed to god, and can make mistakes. This assumes I believe every word Descartes says and I don't, so I don't think this was my fault.
