Mind And Body Descartes Ideas

Conceivability Argument The Sixth Meditation of
Descartes contains two arguments in defence of
Cartesian dualism: First, since the mind and the
body can each be conceived clearly and distinctly
apart from each other. It follows that god could
cause either to exist independently of the other,
and this satisfies the traditional criteria for a
metaphysical real distinction. (Med. VI) Second,
the essence of body as a geometrically defined
region of space includes the possibility of its
infinite divi...

separate entity and that it is independent of the
physical body is the central...
