    The World Beyond The Wall I remembered a day‚ a day of life changing. A day my conscious-self broke into freedom. A day prejudgment and prejudice no longer existed. A day many people who were traumatized by words like swords pray for it to come. A day I was saved by the purist smile of a little angel. Behold‚ the story I am about to tell is not just a fiction tale crafted by my imagination but an experience of my own which I will remember forever. As I walk down the street of my

    Explain Plato’s teaching about Reality through his analogy of the cave Plato’s ‘analogy of the cave’ appears in his most noted work The Republic.

Plato aimed to show that the physical realm was not as ‘real’ as the world of forms‚ and that true knowledge could only

    The philosophical ideas of Plato that relate to the Parthenon include whether the structure is an element of the Visible World or the Intelligible World. In my opinion‚ Plato would view the Parthenon as an object in the Visible World. The Parthenon is a one of a kind monument that is tangible and exists in our real world. The Parthenon is an architectural project and deals with forms of science and mathematics. Plato’s view of science and mathematics are categorized as forms in the Intelligible

    Hume’s counter-analogy does not succeed in undermining Paley’s argument from design. Paley clearly explains to his reader that humans are so complicated that we must have been made by a designer. Hume argues that since the universe is not a human art‚ and is more like an animal‚ it does not need a designer. Paley argues that the complexity and functionality of a watch clearly shows that it was made by a designer. Animals are also complex and functional‚ therefore‚ Hume does not change the argument

    Critically compare the use of symbol and the use of analogy to express human understandings of God The use of symbol to express human understandings of God is useful because it can hold a deeper meaning than can be described using words. The Christian symbol of the crucifix for example‚ reminds people of Jesus’ death on the cross‚ but the deeper meaning that can be gotten from this is the idea of Jesus’ as a sacrifice he made for our sins. Much language‚ both religious and non-religious is symbolic

    How far‚ if at all‚ can analogies with machines help us to assess theories of the relationship between mind and body? Physicalism is the view that everything that exists is physical‚ or depends on something that is physical. For a physicalist‚ the mind is not a substance or a thing. It is more accurate to talk of mental properties‚ mental events‚ mental states and processes. We can then say that these properties (etc) are possessed not by a mind‚ but by a person or brain‚ which are physical objects
