Cosmological and Design Argument

                 First of all philosophy focused on who we are or why are we here by study, theories and explains more by knowledge and experience So when doing those philosophies thinking there will be many different arguments or agreement.  

               The cosmological argument is about that god is the creation of the universe, so the “first cause and the “first uncaused” is cause by god. This theory is convincing for me because I believe one of the monotheism religion and I was raised to believe in it (if I didn’t was raised to believe in monotheism religion I might have different feeling about the cosmological argument).  As a believer of the monotheism religions I have to believe that god create this world and our self. Religion has strong influenced on the people for many years and it still continues to be in people mind.

Blog Question #6 artificial intelligence

I agree with john Searle that computers are not really intelligent and that they are just “simulate” intelligence. First of all, we human programmed the computer’s mind based on what we know from our knowledge or life such as education, health and etc. Human mind is an amazing tool of understanding which don’t require power like computer needs. Computer needs power to be intelligent. Human mind is best than computer in gaining its knowledge as for computer, we put our knowledge in the computer and that’s how computers gain its knowledge from. The computer uses our knowledge to do their tasks such as search, use mathematic calculator and etc. basically we are responsible for the computer performs and the intelligence they use.

          I agree that human are being programmed by society and education to perform certain tasks. From early age of human being such as age of 1or 4 we are thought how to act, what language to speak and how to speak and do basic stuff such as combs our hair brush, our teeth and how to cloth our self. So that’s how we get our intelligence from. Let say if we didn’t get programmed by our society or our education we would be less intelligent such as a cave man!

          Finally, as for my opinion, I believe we should limit knowledge that computers  are getting or ever create an “emotion feeling” for them because I believe if the computer knows our secrets or our weaknesses it might take advantage against us for example, the movies, I, Robot and Terminator.  

Dualism and Physicalism

       Dualist is a belief that Descartes agreed on, it mean that physical thing such as our body and the non physical thing such as our mind does not have the same property and cannot be explained by scientist. Which mean that the mind is a separate substance from our body. As for the physicalism their belief is that the body in one physical substance including the brain and mind which mean in their theory is that mind and the body are not separate.

      Descartes agree with dualist because first of all he is a religious man which was convincing for him to believe in, because all the religion theology it said that when the body died the mind travel to the afterlife.

     Overall I agree with the dualist theory because I know mind can do play trick on us such as do unexplainable thing. Also I agree that our mind is inside the brain and tells our body what actions should it used. Finally I see mind as a soul and the body as a tools for mind to use.

Pragmatism And Feminist Epistemology

I agree that pragmatism and feminist epistemology do challenge the view of knowledge as a detached, intellectual activity. I believe that knowledge help you to be succeed in life and knowledge is something that we gain from the experiences, and use that experiencese as education lesson for us. its can be from learning from experiences or experiences (such as communication experiences) from someone who told you about it. Finally as for feminist philosophers, i understand what they were saying that any belief or truths are not true for everyone, and Male philosophers shouldn't  just think about one human nature and speak for both sexes.
