Unit 4 AS: The Remote Control that Freezes Time


This assignment tests the student’s capacity to relate moral questions to their ramifications and impact upon every aspect of society.


AS Instructions:In the reading Gyges' Ring and Socrates' Dilemma, you have learned about one of the hardest questions in human history, “Why be moral?” Glaucon argues that no one—not even the most upright person—would refuse to live a perfectly unjust life. By perfectly unjust life he suggests doing whatever one pleases without ever being caught and punished. As I suggested in my own example, imagine that you possessed a remote control that freezes time. You could take any amount of money from banks, kill or hurt people you dislike, and more. The amazing thing about it is that after perpetrating whichever action you like, you unfreeze time and no one will ever know what you have done. In fact, while you practice injustice, you gain a good reputation whereby people think you are a high minded, honest, and great individual.


In a 1000-word paper (approximately 4-5 pages) explain why or why not you would use such a remote. If you never had to suffer, you were never punished, and had a great reputation, what exactly would make it morally wrong for you to use the remote that freezes time? Upload as a word document.


Use any style, MLA, APA, or Chicago.



Unit 5 DQ: What’s the difference between science and religion? (Graded)


Logical and mathematical truths cannot be proven by science. Science presupposes logic and math; consequently, we must accept (trust?) that logic and mathematics express many truths, despite not being able in principle to ascertain those truths.


Notions such as there are other minds other than my own or the external world is real are rational beliefs, but they cannot be scientifically proven. Ethical beliefs and values are not scientifically provable. Aesthetic judgments, too, cannot be shown by science because the beautiful, like the good, cannot be scientifically proven. Furthermore, science itself cannot be justified by the scientific method.


Science is infused with assumptions that must be accepted but cannot be proven. For example, the special theory of relativity relies on the assumption that the speed of light is constant in a one-way direction between points A and B. But such a notion cannot be proven. We simply have to presuppose that notion in order to hold to the theory.


From the foregoing considerations, discuss in what respects belief in God and belief in a god differ from our understanding of science. 5 diferents short answer

Religion and science never crosses each other path. People who follows science are most of time keeps arguing about the existence of the God and why religion even exists. Different people have different perception towards religion and science. Since science believe in all those things which are logical and can be proven, it questions the existence of the religion as there is no way in which religion can be proved by scientific methods.
