Do you exist? A French philosopher, Rene Descartes, came up with "method of doubt" and is one of the greatest philosophers ever. He has contributed greatly to mathematics and philosophy. He questioned if we really existed. Do we exist? There's no way of knowing. How do we know we exist? We can't solve that either. It's the "method of doubt." It's impossible to know if we really exist or we're just a brain in a vat. Why do we think our existence matters? Well, everyone has dreams that they want to accomplish. Whether it's beating a video game, or selling out Madison Square Garden. We think that we exist to accomplish goals, because what's the point of existing if you have nothing to win? Cogito ergo sum, I think therefore I am. We think that everything has to have a purpose, but there's no way of knowing that. That's what the method of doubt is all about. Comment what you think.
