What I think that Banach is saying when he says " absolute individuals" is that we are always by ourself. That no matter how much we talk to eachother or feel like we all go through the same thing but we are nothing a like. I feel in the middle, I feel that somethings we go through no one will never know how you feel but something that we go through. Like no one knows how you feel when you fail a test but we all know how it feels to lose someone. Like when someone people faila test they do not care but others start to cry.

1. What can the absolute freedom of absolute individuals means? I think that this mens that we can have the freedom to be us and do whatever we want to do. That people would be able to jugde you or say you crazy because they would be crazy or different just like you.
2. What is human flourishing or human happiness? I think that human flourishing and happinessis when can just be able to do what we want with no one saying anything about us. That we could all get along and no bad things would happen.
3. What ethics or code of action can emerge from a prosition that takes our individuality seriously? We can stop caring about what people say about us. We can just pay more attention to our selves and not on everyone else.

I think that the thing that was the most confusing part was the last line " It is to be an island of subjectivity in an otherwise objective world" I was trying to figure it out with my table but we still was not sure if that is what he was rying to get at.

I think that if would concern me because i love talking to people and like helping people with there problems.

  1. Dear Brianna,

    I really liked how you broke everything down, it made your unique ideas very clear cut and precise. You also showed a very powerful understanding of the text, and I liked that. It was nice.
