We learned about Sartre. Sartre was an atheist. He believed that there is no general human nature and we must create our own. Sartre believed that our freedom was a burden since we arrived in the world free. We must take responsibilities for our actions and find our own meaning of life through the use of consciousness. He believed that there is no female and male natures. In the book we Alberto also explained the Big Bang Theory to Sophie.
This chapter is very similar to today. Scientists are still debating on how the earth was created. The Big Bang Theory is one of them. Some people think that the earth just had this big bang, and puff everything came into place. We also debate over free will, which is what Sartre argued. Is everything really pre-determined or do we create our own future? Today we argue that in school and even in culture and religion. All the philosophers that we have studied had some questions whether God determines are future or we create our own. This book has taught me a lot. I learned about many philosophers and how everyone had such different ideas and their own outlook on life. So the question is, are Sophie and Alberto really real people or are they just made up?
