The act of thinking certifies human’s existence, according René Descartes principle (Discourse on the Method, 1637). In this context, the thought process must be initiated and its results achieved by questioning everything except certain intuitive values.
“…we cannot doubt of our existence while we doubt, and that this is the first knowledge we acquire…” (René Descartes, Principles of Philosophy, 1644)
Starting from this point, man can be considered  as a white page with intrinsic value.
