“Should the World be Present?” Frode Bjørdal Department of Philosophy, Classics, History of Art and Ideas The University of Oslo Data: 20 /08 / 2012, às 14h. Local: UFRN, Setor II, sala C1 Abstract: We present the apocalyptic argument with the conclusion that the world shouldn't be there and premises that the world shouldn't be horrible (caritatism), the world's presence causes horror (mundanialism) and causal consequences of what's permitted are permitted (reliabilism). An object is there iff it's experienced. The world is horrible iff some suffer so much it were better for them to be unborn. Necessitism is defended on the basis of the evaluation semantics and a preferential semantics for deontic logic used to support the optimist view that the world isn't horrible as there for all exist something which defeats their suffering.
