Descartes is one of the philosophers who most caught my attention when I studied modern philosophy, since we can say that he is the father of modernity. His famous phrase "Cogito, Ergo sum" is revolutionary in many aspects. Certainly rationalism has been a philosophical current with important contributions to the development of the history of human thought. I liked your post very much.

Thanks so much for the kind words @filoriologo ! :-)

I find Descartes' cogito to be one of the most ironclad discoveries in philosophy. The system he built on top of it though is widely considered to be rubbish!
