I had no idea what Donna was talking about as I’ve never studied philosophy in depth. A quick google search tells me….Descartes employs three types of argument in order to motivate scepticism about one’s beliefs: an argument from perceptual illusion; the dreaming argument; and the evil demon scenario. Thinking about all that would make me tired as well. I’m more the A.E. Newman philosophy type guy.
