The views of these philosophers on the existence and nature of external objects are distinct based on their views. You have Leibniz and Spinoza believe in Monadology meaning they believe everything in the world is made up of monads. While Locke, Descartes, Hume, and Berkley are Imperialist with their views.
Descartes believes that the existence and nature of an external object is that an existing thing needs nothing but its self in order to exist. We do not perceive the substances but just its properties in which make up the substance. He also says that we are made up of mathematics and thus so are the object that exists proving the existence of the external object.
Spinoza believes that everything has a reason to exist and there does not have to be a cause because the object its self gives it self-cause. An external object must exist as it is made up of monads thus it is impossible for it not to exist. He talks about how no two objects can have the same attributes thus there must be only one substance (monads) and everything else is an extent off that one substance. …show more content…
Leibniz view is that of sufficient reasoning for the existence of objects based on gods existence which does not need sufficient reasoning. Leibniz says that he is certain that he exist in unity thus there must be a substance of unity and that substance must be made of a simple substance that make up everything calling them monads. Leibniz law of the table Is that of the table gets smaller as you walk away but the table doesn’t actually get smaller just your perception of the table gets smaller thus the table present to my mind is different then the real table that
