Method: Having an object in front of you and closing your eyes. While it is possible that the object may not be still there, we still think it does because it seems illogical to think otherwise.
Rationalists
How can this give us the concept of substance if we're not experiencing it?
Hume
I can only know that the object before closing my eyes is very similar to the one when I opened them again. After repeated experiences of this, we arrive at the concept that it exists independently as a substance/physical object.
HABITUAL EXPERIENCE!
