		<description><![CDATA[Benjamin Libet’s famous experiments, which showed that brain activity precedes the awareness of the intention to carry out simple voluntary motor acts, have forced philosophers to reexamine free will.  Many have taken Libet’s experiments to confirm incompatibilist hard determinist accounts of free will, in which free will is an illusion, or at best compatibilist accounts, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tiestin.wordpress.com&blog=3059376&post=19&subd=tiestin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

I have recently taken an interest in the huge chasm that separates Analytic and Continental philosophy, albeit the chasm seems to be narrowing. I am reading several books on the topic right now, and I not sure how many conclusions I have been able to draw yet. However, I still wanted to raise some questions [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tiestin.wordpress.com&blog=3059376&post=17&subd=tiestin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

The Rationalists assert that knowledge is grounded in reason, and the Empiricists contend that knowledge is grounded in experience. Then, of course, Kant comes along and creates this hybrid view, which solves all sorts [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tiestin.wordpress.com&blog=3059376&post=14&subd=tiestin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is psychology enough to preserve one’s personal identity? I have been reading through the different notions of personal identity, and I am not convinced the psychological view resolves the issue. The psychological view asserts that what secures a person’s identity over time is something within their mind, i.e. memories, consciousness, beliefs, etc. For example, the reason [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tiestin.wordpress.com&blog=3059376&post=10&subd=tiestin&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
