AQA AS Philosophy - 6th june

How did everyone find the exam today?

i thought the T.O.K. paper was a gift on a priori knowledge, but the question in philosophy on religion on the arguement for G-d being basic arguement wtf :eek:

Did anyone else do the Sartre paper? howd you find it?

I'm opposite to you, did the representative realism question, thought that was a gift!

The assess virtue theory also, too damn easy.

I never was any good at Descartes and screwed up that paper. Mixed up the Trademark and Ontological argument grrrr

ah im sure its not as bad as you think it was.

yeah i looked at your questions for moral philosophy, and didnt understand a word.

i was also pulled bout which question to choose, i still dont know i chose the right one, they both seemed pretty good.

I just cannot understand the Ontological argument, no matter how much I tried to learn it I couldn't...so I perfected the Trademark argument hoping and hoping it wouldn't come up.

What you hoping for? After that performance I'm hoping a B.

The ontological argument was one nice question :biggrin:

it was just

God by definition is perfect
Existence is a perfection
therefore God exists

and the responses you could have were kant's objection that existence isn't a predicate, the perfect island analogy, in what sense is it more perfect to have existence, the idea of god is contradictary anyway, god is too complex to be conceived, etc, etc.

I did representative realism one too - that was really nice :biggrin:

had a preprepared essay for it, and virtue theory on ethics, which I found really nice too. Eyy.

I thought the paper was pretty nice. Did Representative Realism and the Cosmological Argument.

A lot of people were complaining about the Plato question which was the Simile of the Animal, though I had no problems. We were scarcely taught it in class and so, unless you'd done outside reading, most people were stumped and only managed to churn out a page. I got out 4 :biggrin:
