Should I take a philosophy elective about metaphysics in college, or just independently learn it when I am older (by myself using Leo's content and or other resources)?
The main topics are, Personal Identity, Mind, Body, Free Will, God and Universe, and more. Most will focus on Free Will, in particular determinism. And Another focus will be on God, Evil, and Cosmology.
Reading will involve people like, Derek Parfit, Tom Polger, and other professors and philosophers.
2 main things why I am asking this question is, I am in my early 20's and perhaps i should just focus more on the fundamentals of life(ie. money, career) and I could probably just learn more about it once I am out of college. But then again, it can be good to live life from the top-down way rather than bottom-up. Thoughts?
