Other philosophers, such as Sartre, interpret the concept of humans as being something humans create and identify with. According to existential philosophers such as Heidegger, this means a supreme being, or God, determines what humans are. Different Existentialist philosophers interpret this differently. Existentialism, by contrast, rejects this idea and asserts that humans are just thrown into the world. Philosophers such as Descartes believed that nothing was more certain than the reality of consciousness. However, Descartes argued humans could not think away themselves and, therefore, not doubt the reality of their own consciousness. Descartes argued that humans could think away everything that exists and therefore doubt its reality.
