Answer only ONE of the following:
1) Reflect on the shootings in Ottawa on October 22, 2014 using the concepts of Terror Management Theory and Mortality Salience Hypothesis that we learned about in the material in lesson 4 as well as Becker’s ideas that we learned about in the material in Lesson 3. You might use these ideas to reflect on the events themselves, or focus in on your own reaction to these shootings. Or you might want to reflect on the three speeches given by the party leaders found at this link: http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/ottawa-shooting-harper-mulcair-trudeau-speak-about-attack-1.2809530
Whatever you choose to focus on in your reflection, be sure you are demonstrating that you understand the ideas from the lesson material that you are using.
2) What in your view is the main message of the film “Flight from Death”? Do you agree with this message? Why or why not?
3) What in your view is the main message of the film “Griefwalker”? Do you agree with this message? Why or why not?
4) Some NDE researchers think the evidence suggests that our consciousness continues after our physical brain is no longer functioning. What if anything would this mean for your life right now and for the future if somehow this was shown indeed to be the case?
5) Read the short book by Richard Beck called The Slavery of Death. This book is on reserve at the library. Beck is a Christian Experimental Psychologist who argues that the Christian message is about how we can be free from our slavery to the fear of death. Summarize Beck’s argument, highlighting how he uses Becker’s ideas in his interpretation of Christianity, and offer your thoughts about his views.
6) Using Solomon’s ideas from Lesson 4, do you think Buddhism offers a “better” illusion by which to live? Why or why not?
7) After reading Dembo’s article in Lesson 10, “Addressing Treatment Futility and Assisted Suicide in Psychiatry,” do you think the new legislation on assisted suicide in Canada should allow patients with unbearable suffering due to a mental illness to have access to assisted suicide? Why or why not?
8) WITH MY PERMISSION, write and respond to your own essay topic related to course material.
