PHI 208 Week 4 Discussion 1 2017
Please carefully read and think about the entire prompt before composing your first post. This discussion will require you to have carefully read and thought about the excerpts from Aristotle’s (1931) Nicomachean Ethics, as well as the Week 4 instructor guidance.
Would Aristotle consider someone hooked into the experience machine truly happy? Explain why or why not.
If you had the chance to be permanently hooked up to the experience machine, would you do it?
Finally, based on what you said so far, do you think that people can be wrong about happiness? Does your answer align with Aristotle’s view of happiness? Why or why not? Discuss with your peers how their answers to these questions might align or conflict with Aristotle’s account, as well as how those compare to more popular notions that people have about happiness in today’s society.
