Kant’s solution to Skepticism

Explain Kant’s solution to ONE of the following traditional problems: Skepticism about the external world, using Descartes, Locke, or Berkeley as your reference — do not use more than one! The existence and nature of God, using Descartes, Spinoza, or Leibniz as your reference — do not use more than one! Hume’s skepticism about knowledge of causes and effects.

SAMPLE SOLUTION

Kant’s solution to Skepticism provides significant affirmation the conception of and response to skepticism, as set forth principally in the Critique of Pure Reason. It is generally recognized that Kant’s theoretical philosophy seeks to invalidate skepticism and restructure metaphysics. Available literature identifies Kant’s travails in attempting to distinguish among three types of skepticism: “veil of perception” skepticism, which concerns the external world; Humean skepticism, which concerns the existence of a priori concepts and synthetic a priori knowledge; and Pyrrhonian skepticism, which concerns the equal balance of opposing arguments. Some commentators have sought to invalidate conventional views by showing how the first of these types was of little importance for Kant.

Lewis, R., & Dyer, J. (2002). I Love You Like Crazy Cakes. Boston: Little, Brown.
I Love You Like Crazy Cakes is the story of a mother who goes to China to adopt a baby girl based on the authors own experiences. It celebrates the love and joy the baby brought into the authors home. The author’s journey to motherhood began with a letter to Chinese officials asking if she can adopt a baby from the “big room with lots of other babies”. The babies in that room are all looked after by nannies but are missing a mother. The mother is missing something also – a baby. She travels to China to meet her new little girl and is in love immediately. Taking her baby home to America she introduces her to her family and friends for them to begin their life together. The book shows both the difficulties and happy moments as they settle into their life together. The book is set out like a love letter to her child and it shows how important to them it is that their child is adopted and how being adopted doesn’t make you any less loved than any other kid. In the end of the book, the mother reflects and thinks about the birth mother and her losses.
Two Homes Picture Book/Realistic Fiction
Masurel, C., & Denton, K. (2003). Two Homes. Candlewick.
Two Homes is the story of a young boy called Alex whose parents are now together living in separate homes, which means Alex has two homes. It never discusses why Alex’s parents are not together, whether they divorced or never married. At Mommy’s house Alex has a soft chair but at Daddy’s house Alex has a rocking chair. In each house Alex has a special bedroom with lots of toys and friends to play with. It gives a tour of both homes, two kitchens, two bedrooms, two favorite chairs. Alex lives in the two homes, but the two homes are very similar, and he is happy in both. No matter which home Alex is in: Mommy or Daddy – Alex knows that he is loved more than anything. It is written from the perspective of Alex who travels between the two homes and provides a realistic yet positive view of having two single parents. The book is a great window which can be used to reassure children going through divorce to focus not on what is lost but what is gained. It does not focus on the reason for the separation or the two houses but just discusses how children are loved in both homes and by both parents.
