The Hornswoggle Problem In this paper I will examine “The Hornswoggle Problem” in which Patricia Chruchland makes some strong claims on the argument about consciousness. I agree with Chruchland’s argument on about that Chalmers argument on consciousness isn’t a good argument. my conclusion is that Chalmers makes some valid points which helps make his argument an ok one but not strong enough for it to be a good one. I will show parts of what Chalmers is saying is a valid to his argument and what Chruchland’s find to be insufficient support for these ideas. On the part of her argument that I agree with. Chruchland’s idea that all arguments from ignorance is a bad argument I agree with it. Churchland is saying that even thou we have seen sciences progresses they still haven’t progressed enough to be able to explain consciousness but that doesn’t mean that in the future that sciences won’t be able to explain it as sciences is still in its early stages. so the idea of p explaining s can never happen from the canonical version of the argument in which Chalmers view on consciousness is based on that idea. but if we were to follow that idea of think allot of things happen we would question. for example, Chruchland’s Says if were to object to anything that had to do with the idea of phomhonem about counnnsious they we would question stuff that would sound ignorant from the begin. if we were to question the idea of an unusual sound does that make us ignorant. can I conclude it…

The new social media has not made for a more enlightened, connected and democratic society. Instead, it has used mechanisms to instill fear and mass hysteria to those following them and will continue to negatively influence and mislead people in the future. The traditional media that baby boomers have used is the newspaper. A newspaper passes through many editors and every person is assigned a single section, so you know your section well. Information is passed through journalists to writers…

The American news spends a lot of time discussing the events that take place Iran, Syria, Eqypt, England, and a few others. Some countries are not a majorly discussed country in the news in the United States. There are several others that could be mentioned more, as well. Scotland, Ireland, Australia, Denmark, Switzerland, and Sweden are just a few that we rarely hear anything about in our media. American news networks seem to only discuss a fraction of countries that make up the world.…

my life, and as well as potential risks it poses. These ideas prove that social media has had a negative impact on our society.

News comes today comes in many forms from a twitter update on your phone to the more traditional newspaper delivered right to your house each morning.

It seems we cannot go…

Historically, the United States has been wrought with discrimination and segregation. In the past decades we have become a population without segregation, but did we end discrimination? The answer is no. Media shapes our understanding and view of individuals and crime. Media is our main source of information and our news stations and papers have the power to change the minds of readers. From these outlets we get our information of crime and who they deem “criminal”. The way these are presented…
