1. Compare and contrast Aquinas’ Contingency Argument, Anselm’s Ontological Argument and Descartes’ argument for the existence of God. Logically, what do these arguments have in common?
2. Survey Hume’s critiques of causation and induction. Use them to argue for or against Locke’s empiricism, limiting it to the four arguments for the existence of external objects and the theories of perception they imply.
3. Survey dualism, the identity theory and functionalism. Argue in defense of one, then explain how it leads you to accept one of our textbook’s theories about free agency.
