A Dialogue on the Belief in the Existence of God
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper presenting a possible dialogue regarding arguments about the belief in the existence of God. A theoretical dialogue between a theist (T) and an atheist (A) includes various arguments in regards to the belief in the existence of God including reference to works by C.S. Lewis, Richard Taylor, Anselm, W.T. Stace and Alan Watts among others. While several of the fundamental arguments are denied by the atheist, overall a denial of belief of the existence of God cannot be maintained based on most of the theist’s arguments relating to the fact that through reason, intuition and moral actions, people have come to believe in something which exists outside of the natural world yet remains influential within it; a belief in the existence of God which cannot be denied.

Abortion: Applying Rene Descartes And David Hume's Philosophies
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. David Hume and Rene Descartes viewed the world from two completely diverse perspectives. When applying their respective philosophies to the subject of abortion, the student will readily understand just how divergent their viewpoints truly were. In effect, Hume supported the concept of determinism as opposed to Descartes' endorsement of free will. In establishing the essence of these principles, it is essential for the student to understand the difference between the two representations. When one is cast forward by way of determinism, it is as though one has absolutely no control over the various and sundry occurrences that take place during one's life. Free will, on the other hand, speaks to the concept of having full authority over one's aspirations and ultimate direction, reflecting the exact opposite of those ruled by determinism. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
