3. a Thinking Thing
HUMAN PERSON AS AN IMMORTAL SOUL
Passage:
"On the one hand I have a clear and distinct idea
of myself, in so far as I am simply a thinking, non-
extended thing (that is, a mind) and on the other hand I
have a distinct idea of body, in so far as this is simply an
extended, non-thinking thing. And accordingly, it is
certain that I am really distinct from my body, and can
exist without it."
HUMAN PERSON AS A THINKING THING
Descartes’ assertion is a philosophical perspective which
believes that the nature of man is pure mind. This
perspective states that there is a clear and distinct idea
of a consciousness that through the mind, one thinks of
the self, existing without extensions.
