Descartes discovers that the physical world does not exist, but because he can doubt the physicality of the world, he must exist.  

Explanation:

In the second Meditation Descartes discovers that the Physical world is not real, or does not exist as it is believed to exist in its permanence. This would imply that Descartes himself does not exist in himself, as he is part of the physical world too.

<u>This leads him to think about his doubts too. The fact that he is able to doubt this existence means that he can see that his existence cannot be doubted. </u>

His existence is thus different from his physical existence.

Then the Latin phrase was come up with that is 'cogito ergo sum' or meaning 'I think, therefore I am.'

Alex777 [14]

- How can photos be used as alternate forms of argument?

It can be used as a visual proof to convince others about your point.

Argument often derived from personal conviction.  This personal conviction often really hard to get rid off even if the oppositions provides a clear and logical argument to debunk it.

Visual proof often harder to deny since it can depict a certain situation in a more convincing way rather than personal recollection . Often times, this can be a lot stronger compared to trying to convince others simply by using words.

-  Can a photo convince you to take a specific action or to think a certain way?

Absolutely.

For example,  Let's say that you hear 2 people arguing in the court. Person A accused person B for killing person C at December 12th. Person B denied the accusation.

At this point, you probably not really sure who's in the right.

But, let's say that<u> person B showed a photo that proved he is actually in another city</u> on December 12th and it is impossible for him to be at the crime scene on the time of person C attack.

That photo could easily win the argument in person B's favor and convince others who witness it that he is telling the truth.
