Tolstoys_Ivan_Ilyich

Tolstoys Ivan Ilyich In reading Leo Tolstoy’s “The Death of Ivan Ilyitch” I have found that there is significance to the philosophies of God as put forth in chapter four (p275-355) of Philosophy: A Text with Readings (Velasquez 2002). With deep thought and contemplation I have deduced that there is implication towards atheism and questioning one’s own of beliefs. More interestingly there seems to be a striking possibility that this story could come from God’s own point of view. As soon as Ivan initially gets out of bed his obligation is to receive his medication. Sensing that there may perhaps exist in it some good, he takes the dosage and without delay he feels like there is no good within it at all. To him it is a deception, as numerous atheists feel that God is a deception. The deception, for atheists, is that theists account for knowledge through non-certifiable assumptions in relation to a divine being. Whereas, compared to a theist, an atheist accounts for their knowledge from the world around them without superficial propositions for the truth. When it comes to the medication the deception according to Ivan is that the medicine is supposed to alleviate ivan, tolstoys, llyich, god, pain, medication, questioning, god’s, deception, world, story, reading, live, even, belief, being, within, stop, seems, own, one, life, ivan’s, good, found, feels, existence, exist, die, come, believe, because, atheists, according, without, whether, try
