Discuss how this issue affects you at a personal level.

Choose one of the two below questions to answer for this paper. DO NOT ANSWER BOTH, CHOOSE EITHER ONE OR TWO BUT NOT BOTH.(First Choice) In chapter two we covered several arguments that deal with whether or not there is mind or only a physical brain that directs thinking. Take a position whether you think there is a mind separate from the body (brain)and explain how, given your choice you think the two interact. Alternatively you may take the position that there is only a physical brain that directs thinking and explain how one would account for the operations usually ascribed to mind. You should begin by stating the position you want to defend and say whether or not you agree with this argument. If you disagree with this argument take any of the counter arguments for the opposing position and be sure to: (1) give a brief outline of this argument, (2) tell me what its strong points are, and (3) subject it to a thought experiment of your own design (that means, don’t copy from the book), to show why mind separate from the physical body is not a viable position. Finally, discuss how this issue affects you at a personal level.(Second Choice) In chapter 3 you learned about issues and arguments associated with the question of free will. The issue I would like you to discuss is whether you think free will and voluntary action is possible and how you would explain why we are free even though the universe around us operates according to a fixed and fully determined set of laws. In other words how is it possible, if in fact is possible, to act in a voluntary manner (meaning we all take full responsibility for our actions), while all the laws of nature seem to say otherwise. Take a position whether you think free will is possible. You should begin by stating the determinist position and say whether or not you agree with this argument. If you agree with this argument take any of the counter arguments for freedom of the will and be sure to: (1) give a brief outline of this argument, (2) tell me what its strong points are, and (3) subject it to a thought experiment of your own design (that means, don’t copy from the book), to show why free will is a viable position. Finally, discuss how this issue affects you at a personal level. ((Also, don’t worry about the sources.))
