Ratinost+dualest- Beileved in 2 worlds ( Ideal + Material world)
We cannot have true knowledge about things that change, so we cannot actually know the real world, but we can have true knowledge about things that we perceive through our reason. Thus Plato was very fond of mathematics, because it involves solely the use of reason. Plato believed that people were made up of a body that is a part of the natural world but also an immortal soul that is in contact with the world of ideas. |

-Empiricist ,Clean slate when born

Secondary qualities, like taste, vary from person to person. Locke had a few rationalistic features to his thought. He felt that the same natural rights applied to everyone and also that the existence of God was knowable through reaso |
