A Truth Does Not Become Greater By

Management [ Providence ], Knowledge, And Intention Are Not The Same When Ascribed To Us And When Ascribed To God.

The Great Sickness And The Grievous Evil Consist In This: That All The Things That Man Finds Written In Books, He Presumes To Think Of As True-and All The More So If The Books Are Old.

First Theory . There Is No Providence At All For Anything In The Universe; All Parts Of The Universe, The Heavens And What They Contain, Owe Their Origin To Accident And Chance; There Exists No Being That Rules And Governs Them Or Provides For Them. This Is The Theory Of Epicurus.

In So Far As The Soul Is A Force Residing In The Body; It Has Therefore Been Said That The Properties Of The Soul Depend Of The Condition Of The Body.

God Is Identical With His Attributes, So That It May Be Said That He Is The Knowledge, The Knower, And The Known.
