John Locke

Cal: Hey there John. Can I ask you a few quick questions?

John: Sure thing Cal. Knock yourself out.

Cal: Can you tell me a little about your life?

John: Well I loved from  1632 to 1704. I was an Oxford scholar, medical researcher and physician, political operative, economist and ideologue. I wrote a lot. But there was one main essay. It was concerning human understanding. I tried to determine the limits of human understanding, it was very, very difficult.

Cal: Sure sounds like it.

John: I also wanted more of a separation between church and state, it was too interlocked to me. I thought it made the government very limited. I liked to write about government and morals as well.

Cal: You sure were active with government and writing weren’t you?

John: Very much so. In one of my essays, I said we only can know the appearances not the underlying realities of natural substances. I still truly believe that too.

Cal: Alright, well I think that’s all I need. Thank you John.

John: Sure thing Cal.
