“This is surely the way to look at all of life …”

1. Richard Taylor: “This is surely the way to look at all of life …” (174). What does Taylor
   mean? To what conception of “meaning of life” is he referring? Present the argument
   leading to this conclusion, counterarguments against the original argument, and responses
   on behalf of Taylor.
   Notice that I have only cited the conclusions in the prompts. It is required that each student finds
   textual support to reconstruct the argument, namely with premises that are not presented in the
   prompts themselves. You should provide at least three premises in your reconstructed argument,
   which, it should be assumed, does not include the conclusion.
