Explain an additional metaphysical theory

Reference no: EM13519527

1. Identify a belief that you (or someone in your community) think is true.

2. Present an account of at least one metaphysical account of reality from the assigned readings with support from the course texts and online lectures. For example, you might discuss Plato, Aristotle, or the Cartesian method. Make sure that you include an account of reality and truth and discuss how (and/or whether) human beings are capable of knowing reality with any certainty. For instance, is there a difference between a well-founded opinion and a false one? How are opinions/beliefs related to the truth as such?

3. Explain how the account of truth set forth by the chosen theory of reality might apply to the belief you identified in step 1.

4. Identify and explain an additional metaphysical theory that would take a different approach.
