Why Descartes' Project Fails

My substack: @azfromcam ↳ https://substack.com/@azfromcam Background music:    • Chopin - Nocturne op.9 No.2   The Cartesian Circle is the famous objection to Descartes' attempt to prove God (and move beyond the cogito). Does Descartes' reply to it succeed? And what deeper issue gives rise to this problem in the first place? This video is a little more philosophically dense and could probably do with a bit more explaining in places. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy(ed) it - and if you have any questions about anything in the video, please leave a comment.
