how does descartes say he is certain that objects do exist independantly?

1 answer

Descartes argues that he is certain that objects exist independently because of his own existence. He states that he can be certain of his own existence because he is thinking, and therefore must exist. He then argues that since he is certain of his own existence, he can be certain that other objects exist independently of his own mind.
