Opinions on the Milgram Experiment!!
I thought that the Milgram experiment was very useful. It showed that the majority of people can do bad things under an authoritative leader. Even with most decisions that people do, they are very obedient to their leaders. Most people just follow orders when they work and they really never have any authority. The experiment showed that even though people say that they would never do a wrong, they really do not realize the power that an authoritative person can have on their choices.

What Do You Think About Determinism??
I believe that determinism is the most extreme view that we have talked about. It is easy to oppose it, but there really is not a way of knowing if determinism is true or false. Even some religions say that God is all knowing, meaning that he knows everything that has happened and what is to happen. This could mean that determinism is actually true. However, I would still say that we all have free will and we determine our futures to some extent. All I really know is that we do have a choice when making a decision. Whether a God knows our future or not should not make us so skeptical that we would keep in mind that our future has already been determined.
