Full Question: When it comes to reality, where do you stand–that is, what metaphysical account of reality do you hold? Are you a materialist? An immaterialist? A dualist? Or perhaps, do you subscribe to the pragmatist and/or anitrealist schools? Spell out your position and argue for why you hold it.

Chapter Three discusses the various philosophical theories on metaphysics (or reality) and again, many theories are offered. When it comes to explaining reality, many people today subscribe to either some kind of Materialism or some kind of Dualism. Materialism where all of reality is composed of, or explained solely in terms of, material or physical stuff and thus here one generally subscribes to a more scientific view of reality. With Dualism, the world contains both material stuff like that described above and immaterial stuff like minds, spirits, and perhaps God(s), thus generally speaking one subscribes to a more spiritual view of the world. Certainly there is the possibility of Idealism, where only immaterial minds and their ideas exist, but today there probably aren’t many people out there who subscribe to this position. Given all this, and your understanding of Chapter Three, please respond to the following:

In answering this question, be sure to spell out your stance and address any problems or objections that it might encounter. Note: If you are not sure where you stand, please take a look at the various positions presented in the text and pick one, then argue for it the best you can. Also, be sure to consider some of the other related metaphysical topics concerning freewill and time presented in this chapter as they will be dependent upon your answers. Of course, be sure to incorporate the text into your responses.
