(September 9, 2010 at 7:56 pm)theVOID Wrote: Padriac, one thinking is proof of one thinking, it is not a statement that depends on not being disproved, such as the God belief, so i don't see why that Sagan quote is in any way relevent in this conversation.

I was replying to this point by Deist Paladin
Quote:Why is such a simple idea a failed philosophy? Even solopsists can't dispute it?


I read that as implying that Descartes' argument is true because it has not been proved to be false. Not entirely sure that using solipists is an appeal to relevant authority as I think solipism could reasonably be described as a failed philosophy.

However,I'm a dilettante,not a philosopher,so am happy to be corrected if I've made an error in reason.
