You know what's exceptionally funny: Locke didn't go with "tabula rasa" in the published version of his book. He says "Let us then suppose the mind to be, as we say, *white paper*...". Also, he didn't invent the concept. It was taken from Aristotle. https://twitter.com/KANTBOT20K/status/958920870516396032 …

He also says that the mind does have innate ways/tendencies of assembling information. I mean, that has to be true for empiricism to be coherent.

Do you remember where specifically? I know there are cases where he says functions are impressed in our mind in Treatises/other works, but denies the same claim in the Essay (like moral thinking)
