Cartesian Rationale

To believe with others belief is not necessarily copying the person’s idea. My principles comprises others fallacies in life, and adapting such widens my perspective among other’s belief. One of those is Sarte’s “essence precedes existence” which was associated with atheists. Indeed concepts about something must proceed first before the existence. I as an ordinary existentialist believe that there is no such thing rather than existing. One must exist first to know the conceptions and to be essential. For example an apple, you wouldn’t know the shape, color and it’s tastes unless you saw and taste it. You must know first the concept of something before you’ll know the essence of a particular thing. But as what Bob Ong, the author of “Bobong Pinoy” said “doubting in the existence of God is like a lice trying to figure out if there’s a dog”. For me if you still doubt regarding the existence of God you are stupid. On the other hand, society nowadays embraces the idea of “existence precedes essence” a particular thing has the essence for them although they don’t know its concepts. Well that is one form of foolishness. Extracting something that you didn’t know its nature is a total crap. I never discouraged those who are theistic, what I am pointing out is their non-sensical thoughts for something they haven’t seen yet. So I will be discussing things related to the existence of God.
