    Rene Descartes (1596-1650) was not only a philosopher but also a mathematician and scientist. As a philosopher‚ he used skepticism as a means of finding the truth of all. His idea was to doubt everything‚ and in doubting everything‚ anything that couldn’t be doubted was definite. "I will doubt everything that can possibly be doubted‚ he reasons‚ and if anything is left‚ then it will be absolutely certain." (Moore/Bruder 93) This‚ Descartes felt was the only way to obtain truth and knowledge. This

    If God is perfectly good and the source of all that is‚ how is there room for error or falsehood? Descartes attempts to answer this question in Meditation IV: On Truth and Falsity. “If I’ve gotten everything in me from God and He hasn’t given me the ability to make errors‚ it doesn’t seem possible for me ever to error. (Descartes‚ Meditation IV: On Truth and Falsity).” The framework of his arguments center on the Great Chain of Being‚ in which God’s perfect goodness is relative to His perfect being

    Essay 3: Descartes on the Method of Doubt In the Meditations on First Philosophy‚ we find Descartes at a point trying to suspend all beliefs that he held from his youth by destroying his unstable house of knowledge to build a more concrete foundation of certainty. In an attempt to rid himself of skepticism of his own beliefs‚ Descartes devises the method of doubt to eliminate all his current beliefs that could not possibly be true‚ leaving him only with the things in which he could be certain

These papers are written very differently but are‚ at the same time‚ very similar when it comes to content. Although it’s not word
