Existentialists affirm that the sense of total responsibility for one's destiny leads to a sense of anguish. a. true b. false

The correct answer is a. True

Existentialism refers to a philosophical theory which states that individuals exist as independent agents who have free will and are solely responsible for their life outcomes. Existentialism is the opposite of determinism, which states our lives are shaped by forces outside our control. Existentialists argue that the sense of total responsibility for our own destiny leads to a sense of anguish and can be a burden to some extent.
