I know there are some psuedo-intellectuals on here. I would like to think I'm not the only philo major on this board, or atleast the only person whoregularly read philosophy books. Since it's summer and I no longer have anyone to talk to about philosophy I decided Niketalk might want to be put on game.
Topic one
Rene Descartes, 2nd meditation on 1st philosophy The "Cogito" argument
Pretty much taking the "I think therefore I am" with a new twist. Descartes sat down and meditated(hence the name) and doubted everything fromsenses to reality. The first thing he realized he couldn't doubt was the fact that he existed. This is because in order to think about existence you haveto exist, otherwise you couldn't think about anything for that matter.
Agree/disagree/ understand?
