Intro to Philosophy and Ethics

1. Why is the study of Philosophy and Ethics important to your development as a student and as a human being?

2. Socrates: I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing. Do you agree or not with this line of thinking? Explain your answer.

Philosophy helps us be reasonable. Learning to be reasonable is of utmost importance because we all have to make choices and accomplish goals. Being reasonable enables us make good choices, accomplish our goals, live a better life, and become better people. It satisfies our sense of being a human being in a unique way. There is a sense of being a human being beyond our jobs, beyond our family, beyond our own benefit. There is a thirst for knowledge of the most difficult issues—reality, reasonableness, and ethics. We want to know how to make the world a better place and prioritize our lives in the best way possible. We want to know more about what it means to be a human being and to contemplate the majesty of our existence.

Agree! Because a true knowledgeable individual do not says that they are knowledgeable instead they do believe that the number or the higher of knowledge they acquired is double or triple to the things or knowledge that they do not know.
