This episode covers major themes from Descartes's fourth meditation in his 'Meditations on First Philosophy'.  His central concern in the fourth meditation is to address the source of our error in a way that still leaves room for a non deceiving God.  He tries to accomplish this through a very thought provoking treatment of human will and freedom.  Tune in to see if you think Descartes manages to successfully locate the origin of human error while preserving a God who does not engage in deception.
