Name Professor’s Name Class Date Descartes’ two proofs of God’s existence. Descartes uses the proof ‘Meditation III’ to explain God’s existence. The proof is given via reasoning‚ which begins by describing how he comes to such a conclusion. Descartes does this by mentally closing himself from the general public‚ ignoring hearing‚ sight‚ and the remaining of his senses as he deeply looks and depends upon himself.

Descartes and Hume are two very famous philosophers who had very distinct and competing beliefs about God.

Throughout the past years we had great philosophers who expressed their studies and conclusions that made them very famous. Rene Descartes and John Locke were two philosophers that had the same idea‚ but different views of it. Descartes was a rationalist‚ which are people that argue that only reason can separate reality from illusion and give meaning to experience.

Descartes used this phrase as the basis of his reasoning throughout his meditations where he establishes the idea of Cartesian Dualism. Another major topic that Descartes mentions repeatedly in his meditations is the distrust of the senses and reliance on reason. He also heavily uses his own method of doubting the existence of everything until he can prove
