PHIL WEEK 3

Please pick one of the following questions to answer for the forum this week:

• Why doesn’t Descartes simply determine what's real by looking around him and use his sense experience?  
• In Meditation II, Descartes states, "I am; I exist - this is certain." Explain why Descartes claims that his knowledge here about this cannot be doubted?
• What is the nature of the "I" for Descartes and why doesn't it refer to the physical body of Descartes?
