And Answers 100% Passed Tests
Explain the point of Descartes' assertion that "I am a thinking thing" as it relates to the question: is
there anything that cannot be reasonably doubted? ANS Descartes concludes that because he is a
thinking thing he knows that there is something that cannot be reasonably doubted.
State the Evil Daemon Argument. Explain why Descartes regards it as a stronger argument for global
skepticism than the Dream Argument. ANS If I know S then I know I am not being deceived by
the evil daemon. I do not know S therefore I do not know I am not being deceived by the Evil
Daemon. Descartes considers the Evil Demon Argument as a stronger form of skepticism because it
extends doubt to a broader range of beliefs and challenges the very possibility of having a reliable
foundation for knowledge, including the certainty of our own existence.
State and evaluate at least one of the arguments concerning the existence of God discussed so far in
the class. ANS Ontological: God is perfect therefore god exists. Sound and valid.
State the definition of Validity. Then illustrate how validity is different from truth with a simple
example of either an invalid argument with all true premisses or a valid argument with all false
premisses. (Specify which you provide in your answer). ANS The truth of premises guarantee
truth of conclusion. All birds can fly. Dumbo is a bird. Therefore Dumbo can fly. Valid argument with
false premises but true conclusion.
Give your own original Gettier style counterexample to Plato's Tripartite (JTB) Definition of
knowledge. State Gettier's assumptions about justification and explain how your example shows that,
given those assumptions, justified true belief is insufficient for knowledge. Make sure to clearly
indicate what belief is justified but false, what belief is true and justified but not knowledge, and the
valid argument form by which the latter is inferred from the former. ANS Assumption 1:
Justification does not mean factual. Assumption 2: If you are justified in believing P and P includes Q
and accepts Q as a result you are justified in believing Q.
