Existentialism: Jean Paul Sartre (Singer, page 152). What does Sartre mean when he says we are “condemned to be free?” How does this idea relate back to Sartre’s ideas about God? Explain Sartre’s example of the moral decision of the student deciding if he should go to war. Why does Sartre think each of these can’t really offer a solution to the student’s moral dilemma:
1. Christianity,
2. Kantianism,
3. the student’s emotions,
4. asking a professor or priest for guidance. What was Sartre’s answer to the student? How might we live differently if we followed Sartre’s theory? Explain one objection to Sartre’s theory. Give your own point of view on Sartre’s theory.
