Questions

Fоr Descаrtes’ аrgument frоm Meditаtiоn VI that mind and body are really distinct (your choice out of the two arguments he gives for this conclusion) write an essay which goes through the following steps:    1)    explain the philosopher’s argument    2)    raise an objection to test the philosopher’s argument (directed either against a premise or against the logic of the philosopher’s argument)    3)    give the philosopher’s defense against the objection    4)    explain why you think the philosopher’s argument succeeds or fails: how does the philosopher’s defense succeed in overcoming the objection, or how does the philosopher’s defense fail to overcome the objection. Please develop each step in a separate paragraph (or paragraphs), and label each paragraph with the number for the step that it contains.
