Descartes’ argument for skepticism in his first meditation states that in order to know anything to be true, all oppositions to it must be disproven in a logical way. He then goes on to conclude that there is no possible way to disprove all oppositions for something to be true, making it impossible to know anything. His first premise in support of this is that one cannot trust their senses because senses can deceive reality and make people believe invalid truths. Descartes’ argues that his senses have deceived him before, which makes them unreliable in detecting the truth. The second premise is that an argument can be made for what is believed to be reality is actually a dream. There is no test that can show evidence that someone is not dreaming,
