Assignment task:
The name of the theory is Existentialism. Existentialism according to Crash Course Video #16 is how people refute the notion that God made the universe, or our world, or us, with any particular purpose in mind. The key words I learned from the crash course video that refer to Existentialism are, no justice, no fairness, no orders, and no rules. The way the definition and key terms of Existentialism refers to the American Beauty trailer is how the dad said he blackmailed his boss with no remorse, that goes back to how the existentialism theory comes with no rules. Also a part in this movie clip shows the opposite of how a existentialism person would think, a dad punished his son with aggression and said, "there are rules." According to these examples, I do not believe that Existentialism is ethical, because in my opinion rules, fairness, and justice are supposed to be a huge part of our world.
What is the role of autonomy in this theory? In this theory I believe that the role of autonomy is how Existentialism people believe they have no rules and do not take orders. They live for their self and don't listen to anyone else and that is how autonomy plays a role in this theory.
