Attestation of Descartes Achilles Heel

His education was liberal for it's time but his exploration of "the new sciences" was under the guidance of rigid church doctrine. I believe this left him partly philosophically blinded. The statement that has been affixed to his name is his biggest misstep. He knew almost nothing of thought, of cognition.

This is my footprint taken seconds after it's creation and because I find our senses as subjective as our thoughts I can not hold even this as evidence of my existence.
