In the Discourse on the Origin of Inequality‚ Rousseau describes the state of nature and the origin of chance events that gave birth to a civil state‚ where men build social relationships and developed reason. His description of state of nature is very different from that of Locke and Hobbes‚ as he believes that state of nature is actually better than the civil society. According to Rousseau‚ civil state is the culprit behind destroying the rudimentary man. It is surprising to note that Rousseau

it is the former‚ however Desiderius Erasmus would argue for the latter. Although I tend to side more on Erasmus’s side of the debate‚ there are aspects of both authors writing that I agree with‚ and aspects of both that I disagree with in their “Discourse on Free Will.” Luther went into great detail to explain that human beings do not have free will. In fact‚ if Luther were alive today‚ a lot of his theology would line up with a four point Calvinist‚ as he would not agree with Limited Atonement.

lived from 1596 to 1650. He was rather famous for his works‚ which were published majorly after his death. In this paper‚ I will be arguing Descartes’ method of doubt as well as evaluating his approach to finding the truth of all knowledge. In his Discourse on Method‚ Descartes confessed that at first he believed that to obtain clarity and knowledge one must master their studies and learn as much as possible from the sciences but then he realized he was all wrong.

After his disillusion with education‚ Descartes traveled the world and closely observed everything he saw. On his reasoning for this‚ he wrote what I argue to be as close a definition as one can reach for what it means to be a healthy‚ growing human. His reason for traveling the world came down to his theory that he could “encounter much more truth in the reasonings that each man makes about the affairs that concern him‚ and whose outcome must punish him immediately afterward if he has judged badly”

This connects to all of the literary critics works in how

For his method to function seamlessly‚ Descartes needs to be consistent in his use of the method‚ that is‚ he must continue to doubt and challenge thoughts that originate in his own
