This Core Concept video focuses on Rene Descartes' work, The Meditations, specifically on meditation 3 and the argument for God's existence which he provides there. This argument does not neatly fit into the usual classification of ontological, cosmological, and teleological arguments, and turns on the origin of the idea Descartes has of God.
