Rationalism Vs Empirucism


If I had to choose between rationalsm or empiricism I would choose rationalism. There are many reasons why I trust my mind over mi body. FIrst of all I believe that my senses are tricked all the time, I see things that aren´t true. When I watch a movie I can feel it´s real, my senses get mi into another world I don´t belong and it´s my mind the one that recognizes that it´s only a movie, that its not true. Besides there are limitations in the senses, for example I know that atoms exist even if Im not able to recognize one, I can´t feel them. My senses can be triccked all the time, they make me belive in things that are not truth, My mind is able to question the thing I Think, if I see a house I am shure that the house is there, if I think in a theory I can test it so I can be shure if the theory is right or wrong. Magic is an example of how weak senses really are, magicians can make us believe that a rabbit can appear inside and emty hat, our mind is the one who tell us that is imposible that a rabbit is inside something empty so me recognize our senses had fail. This is the reasons why I choose rationalism, because I belive is stronger.
