Description

In this course, you will learn about metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics. I will be discussing medical, environmental, and business ethics along with consequentialism and deontology. You will learn about ethical relativism, morality, and more. I will be teaching about beauty and art and rather it is subjective or objective. What criteria is there if any for how good or bad someone looks, how something is perceived, and how art is valued? You will learn about existence, and how it is defined, free will and determinism, the nature of cause and effect, and different abstract concepts from writers and philosophers modern and historic. There will be tests and assignments throughout the course. This course is broken down into 3 categories ( metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics ) and will have mini-lectures on various topics, each lecture will go into detail about each concept and how they all relate.  None of the coursework will be heavy, the goal of this class is to enjoy learning without the academic pressure and prepare you for future accredited philosophy courses. This course is less about what philosophers think and more about challenging you to think and create philosophical opinions of your own. Each section prompts you to put yourself in the shoes of a philosopher and determine what is and what isn't.
