Multiple Choice
In the previous reading, Nagel asked "What Is It Like to Be a Bat?" and commented that we cannot know what it is like. Based on these two readings, would Jackson and Nagel agree or disagree? Why?
A) Agree. We can learn all the physical facts about bats, but don't know what it is like to be one.
B) Agree. We can understand the experiences of bats and humans by looking at their brains.
C) Disagree. It's a lot easier to learn all the physical facts about bats than about humans.
D) Disagree. We know what it's like to be humans, but not what it's like to be bats.
