Descartes Views on God From reading some of his works‚ one might assume that Rene Descartes does not believe in the existence of a heavenly being‚ a God that presides over humans and gives us faith. I do not believe this to be the case. I believe that Descartes is simply trying to destroy all of the uncertainties that have come about do to inadequate explanations of such a supreme being. For Rene Descartes and all of the other believers in the world‚ the existence of God provides a convenient
