In five pages (that is, in no fewer than five pages, and no more than five and a half pages):
1) briefly explain Smart’s identity theory in general, and concisely explain “Objection 3” and his response to it (from the assigned Smart excerpt);
2) briefly explain Block’s narrative of how a form of functionalism emerged from Smart’s response to “Objection 3” and (less briefly) how that leads into the debate “as to whether functionalism justifies physicalism or the negation of physicalism” (from the assigned Block excerpt);
3) argue for or against one side of that debate; and
4) defend your argument in 3) against a naysayer.
One-inch margins all around, double-spacing throughout, and Times New Roman font, size 12 only–and no title pages or page numbers, please.
