Interestingly, Descartes' main error was about stuff in space. Space time is the set of all locations that can hold information and the trajectories along which information travels. The spacetime model can only be (approximately) constructed at certain magnitudes of our universe.

He made several large errors (to save the soul). I’m working on ideas about discontinuous extended systems, which could characterize many kinetic computation or materially active info processing systems

Unfortunately, most rationalists dismissed the soul too early, because the soul is the individual's relation to God. They did not realize that God is not a supernatural agent, but a projection of extrapersonal purpose required for nontransactional cooperation.

Without understanding the nature of God (in an epistemologically sound way), one cannot account for the subjective reality of sacredness.
