Georgetown University now offering a course on 'Star Trek'
At Georgetown University, you can learn philosophy through the lens of Star Trek for $4,827.
"Star Trek is very philosophical," the course description reads. "What better way, then, to learn philosophy, than to watch Star Trek, read philosophy, and hash it all out in class? That's the plan." A couple of the questions to be considered are: "I. Is time travel possible? Could we go back and kill our grandmothers? What is the nature of time? II. Could reality be radically different from what "we" (I?) think? Could we be brains in vats?" http://www.foxnews.com/slideshow/us/...s-fall?slide=2 |
