1. What is your own concept of philosophy? 7pts.
➢ Philosophy is a discipline that explores fundamental questions about the nature of reality, knowledge, existence, ethics, and the meaning of life. On the other hand, philosophy explores ideas that are central to the ways we live and that we commonly use without much reflection, such as truth and justice, the notion of consciousness, and good and evil. It seeks to address profound inquiries that go beyond the scope of the empirical sciences. Additionally, philosophy makes us more knowledgeable in terms of our daily lives; it helps us to widen our mind on what to do for us to have a good way of living. 2. In your own opinion, why should we study philosophy?10pts. ➢ As we probably all know, philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems, such as those connected with existence, knowledge, values, reason, the mind, and language. By these, I can definitely say that we should study and understand philosophy, as it helps us humans to express our ideas that enrich the lives of people through our experience, sociability, observations, and gaining more wisdom. Additionally, philosophy helps us make sense of events in our daily lives or experiences, which helps us grow as people and improve our abilities. Other than that, philosophy helps us have a lot of opportunities in our future fields or lives. And in reaching our life goals, we should have enough knowledge, values, and principles to cope with them. 3. According to Socrates the admission of ignorance is the beginning of wisdom. Do you agree? Why?17pts. ➢ Yes. Admitting ignorance can be viewed as the beginning of wisdom because it opens the door to a genuine pursuit of knowledge. When one recognizes their lack of knowledge or understanding in a particular area, it creates an opportunity for learning and growth. It promotes curiosity, a willingness to strive, and a desire to seek out new information and viewpoints. Furthermore, admitting ignorance can foster humility and an openness to different viewpoints, and it acknowledges that there is always more to learn. However, although some may prioritize other facets of the search for knowledge, I myself can view the acknowledgment of ignorance as a key step towards obtaining wisdom. 4. Define ethics. 13pts. ➢ Ethics is a branch of philosophy that examines moral principles and values. It explores questions about what is right or wrong and guides human behavior and decision-making. Ethics, on the other hand, play a crucial role in promoting responsible behavior, protecting individuals' rights, and fostering a just and equitable society. 5. define logic. 13 pts. ➢ Logic refers to the systematic study and analysis of reasoning and inference. It is a discipline that focuses on principles and methods for evaluating the validity and soundness of arguments. Additionally, logic aims to provide a framework for distinguishing between correct and incorrect reasoning, helping to ensure clear and consistent thinking.
