Document Summary

Body as a machine: mind body dualism effects how we think today. Mind-body dualism: concept is that it is two separate things, Mind: non physical, immortal, the self and important, continues to live after your physical body is gone. 2nd wave of doubt: it is difficult to experience dreams when we are asleep, compared when your awake, (what if we are all dreaming) 3rd wave: if we doubt god we have to doubt everything. 4th wave: evil genius/demon: your reality is created by an evil genius who is playing a trick on you. The problem with the external world: matrix: everything around us is just singles, giving us interpretations about what we should see, the world and environment deceives us. In sport culture we put our body through physical conditioning to shape them to preform in a given way, as a tool, where coaches pick and trade athletes.
