#HALSDHSOSHDLSU there was no way i wasnt doing this
Note
I saw your request for hc prompts to avoid your Descartes work and my first thought was watt kids opinions on Cartesian Dualsism. -Patroc
oh you think I won’t?? you test me sir?? i will do this. what else am i going to do with my vast knowledge of watt and philosophy
Obviously Annleigh is a dualist. This really goes without saying. There’s no way this girl doesn’t quote the bible during mind and body theory debates.
Clark is probably also a dualist, but like. He’s more open to hearing about other views. He’s just there trying to stop Annleigh and Kate from killing each other every debate period.
Kate doesn’t know what to think specifically, but she is going to contradict whatever Annleigh thinks at literally any point in time. So if Annleigh thinks there’s a seperate and distinct soul, Kate will die on the hill that there are not just because she can.
Cairo could literally not care less. She is not interested. I do not blame her, and she’s also the only one I respect probably.
Mattie and Reese are probably also dualists, if only because like. It’s a generally more optimistic outlook on life. I assume they just kinda say yeah people probably have souls and move on, you know? Why think too hard about it.
Riley has read every book there is about this topic and still cannot make up her mind on where she is. I’m gonna say she probably leans away from substance dualism, but I could not tell you why I think that.
I think Eva is not a dualist but would respect people’s belief in it. She just isn’t putting up a fight, you know? She will probably step in to stop Kate from killing Annleigh—
Chess doesn’t know where she stands either, and the concept of the whole thing freaks her out. She doesn’t really like to think about big, philosophical questions and I cannot say I blame her. She likes to think about things that can be solved, and questions with no actual answer make her really stressed out.
There’s literally no way Farrah read whatever book they were assigned to discuss this. She probably also skipped the class.
