This is a lecture video about the fourth Meditation on First Philosophy by the French, 17th century, philosopher Rene Descartes. This meditation focuses on the problem of error, which is analogous to the better-known problem of evil. The problem is that in meditation #3 Descartes takes himself to have proven that God exists. But if God is all-good, then it seems impossible that God would have created Descartes in such a way that allow Descartes to come to false beliefs. Descartes claims to solve this problem by distinguishing between the faculty of knowledge or understanding or intellect, on the one hand, and the faculty of choice or freedom of the will, on the other.
Here are the videos about the previous meditations.
