They don't trust what their senses tell them about the world.
- Rationalism dates back to over 500 BC.
- Parmenides is considered the first rationalist. He thought that the material world could only be understood by thought and reason, not by senses.
- Some other rationalists are Rene Descartes, Baruch Spinoza, and Gottfried Lebniz.
- The school of philosophy that is the complete opposite of rationalism is empiricism. It says that reality cannot be obtained by the senses, not reason. ]]> 2017-11-12 02:21:16 UTC https://padlet.com/spandya/yr8fpp4z4mm6/wish/205936371 spandya https://padlet.com/spandya/yr8fpp4z4mm6/wish/205936719 Philosophy is the rules, ideas, and principles that someone lives by.]]> 2017-11-12 02:33:32 UTC https://padlet.com/spandya/yr8fpp4z4mm6/wish/205936719
