2. “All that happens must be known—true or not?” And is all-seeing really all-knowing? (70)

I believe that “all that happens must be known” is true and false. It is true because if everyone knew that everything they do is known, then anything bad will most likely not happen. Crime would go down, being lost would be nonexistent and lastly everyone would be honest with each other. But the false thing about is that there is no such that is privacy anymore, where one can do what he wants without being judged. The sense of freedom is taken away form everyone. The only sense of freedom anyone can have is his or her mind, where no one else can enter or read.

Your response to ‘ChildTrack’ (p. 85 – 90)?
My response to ChildTrack is that the idea is great for every parents that wants to keep their kid safe. But I feel that ChildTrack can only go so far to protect your kids and keep your mind at ease. If Childtrack were to become popular, Kidnappers would know about it and would know to get rid of it and possibly use it to throw everyone off.
Your response to the “Luv-Luv” presentation (118 – 125)?
My response to the “Luv-Luv” Presentation was that it should not have been someone there also, the reason is that her privacy was being invade in such a way that Mae felt like everyone around her knoew every single possible information about her.

    Epistemology or theory of knowledge is a branch of philosophy related to the scope and nature of knowledge. The subject focuses on examining the nature of knowledge, and how it relates to beliefs, justification, and truth. Epistemology contract with the means of production of knowledge, as well as skepticism about different knowledge claims. “Epistemology is the philosophical investigation into this question: What can we know? The question, at first, seems pretty simple: It seems pretty obvious that I know that 3+5+8, that the sun will rise tomorrow and that my chances of winning the lottery aren’t very good. I also know how to tie my shoes, boil water, and send an email.” (Mosser, 2010) The core of this questions and area of study is Skepticism, in which there have been many approaches involved in trying to disprove a particular form of this school. This paper will discuss the Epistemology school of Skepticism, the contributors whom created the school; the evolution of how the school grew out of it’s the original field of Epistemology, and a few examples of real-life applications pertaining to the school.…

    We have a fundamental need for privacy because all of us have things that we want to hide from others. For example, we may be involved in a crime intentionally sometimes. When we download songs online and share them to others, we are violating the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. This will surely cause a lot of troubles for us. Fortunately, with the aid of privacy, we can hide our transgressions and get rid of the trouble. Not only can privacy help us hide something bad, but it can also help us hide something secret. In the article “Why Privacy Matters Even If You Have Nothing To Hide,” Daniel J. Solove shares an example that all of us will not want to show others our naked photos (342). This is a strong example to show we need privacy for hiding things other than bad things from others. It is impossible for a human being to have nothing to hide and our lives are surely being bothered by government’s…

    Normally, teenagers progressively receive more responsibilities as they age until they turn 18 and are capable of learning the rest on their own. This wasn't the case, however, for teenager Antone Bazil Coutts, also known as Joe. His mother was raped when he was only thirteen and lived a somber, isolated lifestyle from then on, leading to his inevitable passage into adulthood happening at an earlier stage in life than it should have. Louise Erdrich foreshadows this in the first chapter of The Round House through the image of the Handbook of Federal Indian Law, by Felix Cohen. This book symbolizes Joe's mental coming of age and his rapid maturation into the new realm of adulthood.…

    Kant And Skepticism

    • 1759 Words
    • 8 Pages

    Immanuel Kant argued that although human knowledge comes from experience, nonetheless knowledge must be grounded in some necessary truths. It is hard to see how the existence of logically and metaphysically necessary truths is enough to ground human knowledge. Following Kant’s reasoning, there are certain types of knowledge we have no access to. I will argue that Presuppositionalism is more plausible than Kant’s skepticism about certain types of knowledge, and that from the Presuppositionalist perspective skepticism is self-refuting. If we don’t assume that God exists, we find that we can’t reach certain conclusions and are left wanting.…

    It can be argued that immutable truth “shows” itself, but it seems reasonable, in light of the two counter examples of the duck-rabbit image, and the music analogy, that immutable truth does not necessarily “present” itself. At this point, there is no need for further exploration of the second premise nor the conclusion, as premise one has “presented” itself as being…
