Hmm, How do i choose between three people with wishy-washy wishful-thinking philosophies?
Descartes though he can PROVE that God exists, Kant though that there is universal morals, Hegel's dialectics are PURELY speculative and are based on nothing.
So who do i pick?
I will stick with Descartes at least his mathematical contributions were valuable.

Descartes! No, not just because you can make silly puns from his name.
He was a towering genius and philosophical pioneer, much more so than Kant or Hegel. He's not only the "Founder of Modern Philosophy," he is also considered the "Father of Modern Mathematics." Look up all the different uses of the adjective Cartesian. Besides, Descartes was a major influence on both Kant and Hegel.

Descartes - the other two were just riding on his coattails
