[ORDER SOLUTION] Philosophy Exercise

In our course, the essays that we’ll write will involve considering and responding to the views of another thinker (or thinkers). As we well know by now, whenever we engage with someone else’s thoughts, our first order of business is to make sure we understand what they are claiming. Only once we are confident that we understand their view can we responsibly consider whether or not we agree with it. The way we can test whether we understand a view is by trying to explain in our own words: what the view is and what reasons are offered to think that it is true. From here, we can then articulate whether or not we agree, and why. As it turns out, once we have done these three things, we have the foundation of a philosophy paper. That is, a philosophy paper is built on three sections: (1) the explanation of a view, (2) the explanation of the argument for that view, and (3) an evaluation of the view and the argument that supports it. So, in this exercise, you should write a three-paragraph paper on Dan Moller’s ‘An Argument Against Marriage’. In the first paragraph, explain in your own words Moller’s thesis (i.e., his central claim). In the second paragraph, explain in your own words Moller’s argument for his thesis. In the third paragraph, explain whether or not you agree with his claim and argument, and explain why.
