Descartes wanted to start his philosophy from scratch. According to him, they were entirely demolished all existing structures because, he said, were in ruins. This could create a new building based on reason from its foundations.
"Cogito ergo sum"
And this was his first stone: "I think therefore I am "...
After the first stone was stuck in a dead end, but would not accept that without the reality of their senses, experience, could not leave him, and unwittingly grabbed one of the beams of the building demolished, without assessing their state, and continued building.
Perfection ... something that others had already defined as an arbitrary language over two hundred years ago (Occam) and now Descartes revived into something like San Anselmo evidence to prove the existence of God.
If Descartes, to reach this point, I asked: "Why?", The building could not continue this way. Since he had inadvertently reintroduced the world of Plato's ideas ... his building began to be constructed with materials demolition and had not even asked about the status of these materials.
Descartes was the genius who knew how to tear down the building of philosophy and knew how to put a foundation stone, but was unable to make the most important question to which you should try to answer a philosopher: "Why?".
If any reason should be supported by the existence of God, why do we have to bother doing philosophy if you have the Bible? On the other hand, if you only know the self, where we are all terms used to define the perception and why language is used as the basis for the definition if your time has not been defined?
In his posthumous book "Thousands and thousands of millions," Carl Segan, insisted on what our perception is limited compared to the universe, we did see the huge numbers who moved to us, insignificant human. So why someone might think that the only language tool you can define the universe?
Our daily experience puts us in touch with the universe, a very small, infinitesimal, but reveals little by little the human nature ... when you just need to go picking up the pieces that the universe gives every day to find the answers to your questions, if our species is patient and able to survive their own ignorance, one day find the answer to every "why?" s ".
The Universe is dark as an open question, almost all are invented are valid, but very few will be true.
