So far in the class, we have focused on the general frame of human thought, as well as the wisdom of shamans, ancient Egypt, and ancient India. Some topics one can consider and argue about that we have discussed so far are:
1) Does human perspective evolve and change, or is it largely the same as it has always been?
2) Should all truth be questioned and re-reasoned, or are there understandings and dogmas that are true enough to be certainties?
5) Do all cultures share similar views, or are some cultures incompatible with others?
The essay is due on October 1st, in a week and a half. Email me if you have any questions.
