[Modifying the Philosophy Lab on p. 288]

Think about the last time you were terribly mistaken about something you were very sure was true (nothing too salacious!). How did you come to doubt it? How did you come to change your mind about it?

Tell the reader about it in a 400-500 word response.

NOTE: This assignment is technically the inverse of the "One Fundamental Belief" assignment. Here, you are thinking about an idea you would have ardently held but turned out to be false instead of an ardently held belief that you are willing to die for. What do these two assignments show us about the role of philosophical inquiry?
