The Big Questions of Philosophy

We have all pondered seemingly unanswerably but significant questions about our existence - the biggest of all being, "Why are we here?" This course gives students the tools to follow and create logical arguments while exploring famous philosophers' viewpoints on important questions like: What is knowledge? Can religious belief be justified? Does God exist? What is the nature of the mind? Do humans have free will? What is morally right and wrong? How should society be organized? Join Plato, Descartes, Locke, Hume, Kant, Mill, Marx, and many others in an exploration of fundamental questions.
