1. How would you feel if you realized that you were just "stuff" just this body, and that there was nothing "meta" physical about? Be sure to use your "I" voice and present your reaction in an autobiographical framework. Also make pertinent references (when possible) to the film on mysterium tremendum.
: Realizing that I'm just "stuff" and not having any soul, or nothing my reaction would be hopless. Growing up to believe in God, having a strong relationship I know that I have a soul, and knowing where I belong. It is hard to imagine if I were just " stuff". Maybe If I was raised different, and not being Religious then Thinking that My body is just "stuff" I surley would have a different answer like do things different in life, and think in a different in life. For example being religious there are certains things I apply first. If I was different my mentality would be in a different state of mind as of thinking different on now knowing that I'm just "stuff".
2. Using your own life as a template, provide two or more examples of Plato's Allegory of the cave.
Hint: Think of those times in your life when you mistakenly believed something to be true or real but you later realized wasn't. Be sure to think within the context of the movie.
: One example of (Plato's Allegory of the cave) can be religious where in some cases the teach people false prophecy to people, and believe these things. It's like they control people's way of thinking or doing. Another example in my eye's is the government who is definetly hiding, lying , and going againts society. The Govenrment make's it seem that they are with us 100 percent, and are not againts us, but they are the opposite who want to control society in many ways. The Govenrment wants to be powerful in all the things in the world that's how I see the government. For example it's lilke a person who is trying to manipulate you in doing things they want you to do.
