His argument that God cannot create an error because he is good, and that he is source of all good, is undoubtedly a weak one. He also fails to see possibility that God may not have created everything that exists, and that evil could play a big role in it. It seems to me that all positive and good comes from God, but evil comes from us. Additionally, he is convinced that God exists because he can clearly and distinctly perceive that idea, but he can trust his clear and distinct idea because he knows that God exists. In conclusion, Descartes arguments seem very convincing at first, but after detailed analysis, it still remains unclear, which leaves problem of error
