Philosophy of Values: Final Exam - Period 3
This morning found yummy baked goods at the front of the desk, next to a stack of wiggling blue books that were currently held down with a couple large bricks.
Wilson was leaning against the front of the desk, holding a folder which contained the exam.
“Good morning, class.” He said with a smile as soon as everyone was seated.
“All right, you have the full class period for this exam, its closed book and notes…you all know the routine by now I’m certain. I’ll be handing out your exam and a blue book. There are plenty more up here at the desk but…err…given recent events, please don’t grab extras until you are ready to hold them down and use them.”
Smiling once more at the group, Wilson’s dark eyes twinkled.
“I’m really going to miss you guys, it’s been a wonderful semester and I hope you all have a fantastic holiday.”
Pushing away from the desk, he began to hand out the blue books and the final exam.
"Oh! Last thing, Phoebe and Blair, would you both see me after class please?"
Short Answer
1) Please discuss the idea of Arrogance in the terms of the Seven Deadly Sins. Discuss the idea of Humility in terms of the Seven Virtues.
2) Write out Kierkegaard’s definition of Despair.
3) Detail a scenario where Forgiveness would benefit you over Revenge.
4) Why is it only drug dealers and software developers call their clients 'users'?
Essay Questions (Answer 3 out of 4):
1) Discuss the play ”Othello” in terms of the philosophical question of how Othello’s arrogance and insecurity make him vulnerable to the manipulations of Iago and how Desdemona’s innocence either does or does not play a role in the ultimate tragedy.
2) Earlier this semester we discussed the idea of our reality and how our individual reality defines us. Using that discussion as a foundation weave in the philosophical differences that Hope and Despair bring to our reality of ourselves.
3) Discuss the interlocking relationship between the ideas of Forgiveness, Revenge, Cooperation and Confrontation. Take a scenariohandwavey listened below and follow it through various combinations of those four ideas. (This question also gives you the chance for extra credit if you can tackle more than four variations on these ideas.)
4) Can something be Aesthetically pleasing and also Pragmatic or are these two ideas mutually exclusive?

"After Aziraphale being gone for the first part of the month, we decided that a nice quiet Christmas here at home was what we both wanted. So we'll be keeping the island company this holiday."
