Hume + Anal
Hume:
Descartes says that I have a god who preserves me from moment to moment.
Anal:
Zorn's lemma: If a partially ordered set has the propert that every totally ordered subset has an upper bound, then the partially ordered set has a maximal element.
Combine these 2 facts. Consider all things in this world. Place an order relation on them, in which X>Y means that Y's existance is ensured by X. By Zorn's lemma, there exists a maximal element (GOD), whose existance is guaranteed.
Such a pity that neither of my teachers would appreciate this observation ... my hume teacher would rather us quibble over whether cognito means I think, I'm thinking, I thought, I have thought, etc ...
