<h3>Reading for Lecture 5</h3>
<p></p>
<p>Each lecture has an assigned reading. You should do the reading before working through the lecture. You will get so much more out of the lecture if you do. The reading for Lecture 5 is <a href="https://courses.edx.org/assets/courseware/v1/9707546ff495afc9c20373a29da8a8d8/asset-v1:MITx+24.02x+2T2020+type@asset+block/L1_L5_Epicurus_Lucretius.pdf" target="[object Object]">Epicurus and Lucretius on death</a>.</p>
<p>This is the same as the reading for Lecture 1. But the reading is rich in ideas and well worth reading again, especially now we've got more philosophy under our belts.</p>

<h3>Discussion Question 5.2.2</h3>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>Once you understand that it won't be bad for you to be dead, do you still want not to die? Why? What else is your desire not to die based on, if not the thought that it is bad for you to be dead?</p>
<p>Please click the post labeled "Discussion Question 5.2.2", look over other learners' responses, and add your own. Please do not create a new post. Just add a response to that existing post. That makes it easier for everyone to see what others are saying.</p>

<h3>Comparing Sizes of Sets</h3>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>We distinguished two ways in which one set may be bigger than another.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><b>Cantor’s Way of Being Bigger:</b> Set B is <i>bigger</i>; than set A if we can pair up each member of A with a member of B (monogamous marriages) but not vice versa.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><b>The Subset Way of Being Bigger:</b> Set B is <i>bigger</i> than set A if A is a proper subset of B (i.e. everything in A is in B, but not vice versa).</p>
<p>The questions below test your understanding of these definitions.</p>

<h3>Discussion Question 5.3.4</h3>
<p></p>
<p>Are you convinced by the argument that you shouldn't worry about dying earlier or later, because dying earlier or later won't increase or diminish (in Cantor's way) the time you spend dead? Why or why not?</p>
<p>Please click the post labeled "Discussion Question 5.3.4", look over other learners' responses, and add your own. Please do not create a new post. Just add a response to that existing post. That makes it easier for everyone to see what others are saying.</p>
