Phil 100 S14: Extra Credit

In "On Bullshit" Frankfurt argues that bullshit is worse than a lie. In addition, on page 50 of our text, he argues that most people find lies worse than bullshit. Write a one page paper in which you answer the following questions:
  1. Do you think bullshit is worse than a lie? Why or why not?
  2. Why do you think people are more offended when they are lied to vs. when they are bullshitted?
Your answer should be typed, double-spaced in a 10-12 point legible font. It is due Wednesday, May 14, 2013.
