WHY ARE WE HAPPY?

Don Gilbert->

Hardvard psychologist Don Gilbert says us our beliefs about what will make us happy are often wrong a premise he supports with intringuing research,and explains in his accessible and unexpectedly funny book.

There exist two types of happiness that Don Gilbert distinguishes:

- Synthetic happiness: it is the happiness that a person feels when a final aim has that to obtain, but it obtains another similar aim and to autobecome convinced that what it(he,she) has obtained is better than his  former aim.


- Natural happiness :es the happiness that a person feels when it achieves some aim that has cost a lot of effort to him to manage.


A person who remains paraplegic and a person who gains the lottery after a year, for example, the person paraplegic, they will be equally happy.

PAUL BLOOM

THE ORIGIN OF PLEASURE

His research explores how children and adults understand the physical and social world, with special focus on languaje, morality, religion, fiction, and art. We often think of bias and prejudice as rooted in ignorance. But as psychologist Paul Bloom seeks to show, prejudice is often natural, rational ... even moral. The key, says Bloom, is to understand how our own biases work, so we can take control when they go wrong. So pleasure is a cultural and natural thing. Examples: easter,fair,holy week,christmas...

In the speech he presents an accessible and extremely funny discussion of everyday pleasure, drawing upon the research, he explain How Pleasure Works. In a wide-ranging discussion, he argues that there are deep and surprising commonalities in the pleasures that we get from art, food, sex, stories, and consumer products and there are some cultural ingredients in pleasure.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PLATO´S CAVE AND MATRIX

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PLATO´S CAVE AND MATRIX

The relationship between Plato's Cave and Matrix is that chains are Matrix because you only see what filmmakerlooks film wants you to see and not reality as people who are out of Matrix. When you leave Matrix you discover is the reality.
Plato´s ethical ideas say that if you know what is right , you will do what is right.
In the cave, the sun represents the real world, the liberty, because the sun was outside the cave and Plato was inside the cave, so this is the liberty.

ETHICS & FREE WILL

ETHICS & FREE WILL

One rather important point is to consider what view we should have regarding free will. I take a practical view of this matter and believe in free will. As I see it, if I am right, then I am…right. If I am wrong, then I could not believe otherwise. So, choosing to believe I can choose is the rational choice:

 I am right or I am not at fault for being wrong.

IF YOU DON´T  KNOW WICH OPINION YOU MUST CHOOSE  FIND INFORMATION AND LOOK WICH OF THE TWO OPTIONS HAVE MORE VOTES.

TALKING PHILOSOPHY

EXPERT´S OPINION

1.) The person has sufficient expertise in the subject matter in question.

2.) The claim being made by the person is within her area(s) of expertise.

3.) The claims made by the expert are consistent with the views of the majority of qualified experts in the field.

4.) The person in question is not significantly biased.
