Mind: method of ideas

Locke think that our mind is obstracts, denominates, compares, and exercises it's operations about simple ideas.


I think he's right about that, becuase who's to know if there is such a thing called "truth" in the world. The only thing we know is that we use our sensation and reflection in our mind to judge. "what one know to be truth, might not be true to everyone"

Ally i kind have to agree and disagree with you on that because i think we know the truth is just that we get confused and follow something else. We all have our own truth but as you know we all are different and watever works for us we follow

Everyone in the world has so many different ideas that who really knows what the truth is? People are taught different views and what is wrong or right. Ones person right can be another persons wrong.

I think i agree with liz about the part where we might know the truth behind the simple things like everyone agree that the sky is blue, but about more complicated problems, i don't agree that we know the truth and we are simply confused!
