Mixed reality

All I needed to accept was the reality of Jesus’ promises, teachings, and resurrection. I had been naïve to think that I could, through one worldviews class, completely understand Christianity and what it meant to me. The purpose of senior seminar was to explore a plethora of beliefs,…

Complex characters such as Norma Desmond and King Lear are often used to display the effect people have on other’s realities and beliefs. In Sunset Boulevard by Billy Wilder and King Lear by William Shakespeare, complex characters are used to demonstrate how permissive relationships can create the false reality and ultimate madness one may endure. In Sunset Boulevard, Norma Desmond experiences a sheltered life that leads to a state of insanity. While much of this insanity comes from her own…

the topic is highly discussed, as how the characters use drugs in order to not think about their normal everyday life and how they try to escape reality by getting high off the pills from their work. In doing so, Johnson presents a conflict of man vs. himself, in which he tries to forget about his problems and act as if everything is okay when in reality it is not. Fuckhead doesn’t have a good life, and he is making it harder on himself for the fact that he continues to screw up and do drugs,…

instantly turn into a sad one, he also portrays the message of being lonely, but in the opposite way of Maya Angelou does, he feels that he is all alone, but covers it up by listening and observing others to feel like he is part of the crowd but in reality, he isn’t.

Question 1 In the story, The Allegory of the Cave, Plato uses the three prisoners to distinguish between genuine knowledge and right opinion. He uses psychological, epistemological, and metaphysical thoughts to prove it. In The Cave, there are three prisoners tied up and they can only look at the wall in front of them. In that cave, there is a light source behind them producing shadows that appear on that wall. The three play a game; the goal was to guess which shadow will appear next…
