Question: In order to reach fundamental convictions that he can call his own, Descartes decides to sweep aside all the opinions he had learned “at school.” However he is careful to distinguish his position from that of the skeptics. What is the distinction he makes?

Answer:

Descartes is untroubled by the fact that, as he has described them, mind and matter are very different: One is spatial and the other not, and therefore one cannot act upon the other. ... It is the nature of bodies to be in space, and the nature of minds not to be in space, Descartes claims.
