Idols of the mind

I wasnt in the class and I dont understan tjis very well but after reading some information I think that with this idea Francis Bacon explain us an important part of our mind. Is important to know how sometimes our mind fail, this are fails that make us think bad or in the easiest way. I will try to explain an idol of the mind(I hope you understand it).

IDOLS OF THE MARKETPLACE:

Sometimes its difficult to explain an idea that we have because we think inmediatly that the other person will not understand us as the way we want, so we go to the easiest way and we change the topic or we try to explain with other words that just confuse us more. Like when we do philosophy works, to me it happen that I have an opinion that I want to share in a blog or in a test but I dont find the correct words to do it or I think people will no understand me, and then I use other words and the work dont finish as I want. Or when Im talking with friends and I say something that sound stupid, and when I repeat it its really stupid but also I understan what I want to say but the idea was not clear and it ends like a stupid idea.

empiricism vs racionalism,

I can't choose between this two because is too difficult to choose a side that is absolut. So I will explain both sides. I will choose rationalism because is trustable and you can be sure with it because reason never fails, but by the other side living just thinking reasonable have to be like hell and if you want to prove a scientific theory or things like big decisions is good o be racionalist but you dont have to prove eveything that happen in your life.
I will choose empiricism because sometimes people should live with their sences to live better, i f you create experiences with sence perseption you will get more from that and even if it sounds cursi sometimes is better to live with sensations.
So I think some philosophers want to show their philosopfies by living them absolutelly and extremely and they were closed to another opinions. For that is better to live with a balance of both is good to have sense perception and sometimes is good to trust in them, and also is good to reason about somethings to understand them better and never forget that you can always trust in reasoning.

Descartes

How I Know that I exist and everything around me is real? If we start to make us questions like Descartes we probably end in a huge dilema were we find out that existence is really difficult to prove and that we can never be sure about reality. Descartes think that only in a logical way we can explain Universe, logical explanations like math and science, and then he said that only reason will explain us everything. This thought help a lot in world because some people try to find a logical explanation on everything that is no always the best way to understand, but also discover some of the big lies in Universe, like religion that if you cant explain it in a reasonable way you shouldnt believe on it. Is sometimes difficult to understand how Descartes was against sence perception because if you want to built a "true" knowledge you should built it throught experiences, but Descartes said that we cant trust on sences because we cant be sure if we are in a dream and we cant be sure about true reality. Descartes let us huge questions that let us thinking why we are sure of everything and why we beleive on thinks without doubt about them.

God in Middle Ages

God in Middle Ages was adressed in a way that said to people that he is everything, for that they use words like omnipresent, omnipotente, tha God is all in the world and that he lives in everything. People try to find ways to explain the power of God and for that they use this words but then they star to think in logical words to explain God. So this words that try to explain the greatness of God explain him throught limits and explain us God in a way that we have to understand it because it is what it is without doubts. Church search for some words that explain people this everything that is God, so they put this words that should work to explain God in the closest way possible. People in Middle Ages just accept this everything, if they try to understand this word and their meaning they will end understanding that God can't be explain is just a creation of people minds and a lie they have in their heads.
