Well, then! Guess that would make me heretical as well.
I could have sworn Descartes didn't believe in God. My bad.

Descartes was pretty devout. He was raised Catholic but became a believer in Jansenism, which was an offshoot of the Catholic Church in the 1600's. Jansenism was actually heretical as far as the Church was concerned, though, because it emphasizes predestination as opposed to free will.

That is one of the many things I love about FR. You learn so much! It astounds me the nreadth and depth of knowledge we have here.
It also was interesting that almost all of the first posts (*ahem* mine being first) pointed out the massive error on the part of the author.
I stand corrected! It is not scripture. The I Am is what threw me. Thanks for the adjustment. The point is, and it's nothing new that he is claiming himself a god and it is in my opinion that those that make strong claims in public eventually get judged before the final judgement.
