Discussion
Your response should have four parts.
1. Discuss what the Stoics believed about the relation of Fate to the things that happen in our lives. Was Fate a God(ess) or an impersonal power? .
2. Are the events of our lives under our control or not?
2. How should we approach things that frustrate us?
3.  Give an example of an area in your life where you might apply the Stoics’ philosophy.  
You should have a minimum of 100 words for your initial post
Reflection
Read the problem of evil as presented in Chapter 8 and then consider it in light of hedonism as discussed in Chapter 7.  Both talk about “good’ and “evil.” The problem of evil is a proof against the existence of God, and the evil of hedonism relates to something that should be avoided at all costs in order to maximize pleasure.
1. Are they using “good” and “evil” in the same sense? If not, does this complicate our attempts to address the problem of evil, since it is concerned with why God allows evil?
2. What solution to the problem of evil could one find in Hedonism, if any? Explain. 
At least 250 words.
