😁 - based on Romans 1, it means "I think, therefore HE IS" -- it encapsulates the idea that reason does not compete with revelation as a source of reliable knowledge (reason vs. revelation), but is itself a revelation (reason is a revelation). All of creation reveals the creator--our created selves (with an ability to reason) included. This revelation - what we cannot not know - is that though we exist, we did not bring ourselves into existence; that we have been created, therefore we ought to know and be grateful to our Creator for having created us.
