Grp19 Sec1: Voting pt. 1

Hey, all. Been awhile since I posted. I mistakenly thought that because we didn't have discussions in class, I wasn't supposed to post here. After all, that would just be summarizing what's already in the book with no opinionated input, which would be kinda pointless.

In any case, I'm gathering the questions for the next exam together. I realize that because of the above, I may not be able to find all of your questions, so if I miss any, please bring it to my attention. As quickly as possible, please.

Here are the rules: for each philosopher, I will give you a choice of which questions you would like to see on the exam. Simply vote for the letters next to them. 1A, 2B, 3C, et cetera. When that's done, I'll compile them all and put them in a single post. The most popular will go on the test.

(If there's an asterisk* next to the question, it means the answer is unable to be provided by me, or in other words, not easily findable. If this is one of your questions, give the answer in a comment.)

And yeah, being an English major, I will sometimes make "creative" changes to the questions.

A) Did Berkeley believe that objects are physical at all times? (N)
B) What does Berkeley's "esse est precipi" mean? (To be (or exist) is to be perceived.)

Pierce(5)
