We can't prove if anything exists or not, and that's either really scary or does not matter at all! On this episode of Unlimited Opinions, Mark and Adam break down more of the Early Modern Philosophers from Descartes to Berkeley, as the name would suggest. They discuss Descartes' massive influence on all of modern philosophy, John Locke's brilliant political ideas, Baruch Spinoza's examination of Scripture, and George Berkeley's perception of non-existence.
Also, please forgive the two moments in the podcast where the audio drops out! We would fix it, but we truthfully have very little idea how to work recording equipment, as is probably evident by this point.
