After reading Spinoza probably great job, I could not help but think about what you told me to God, or say, the universe. After standing pensively, I began to come to my own conclusion that the majority of sentences in Spinoza’s Ethics totally absurd. One of these propositions, that God gives us, “is everything, and all ideas” (yes, it makes the idea that the opposite of that thought) does not make sense to me. Because if it is not unreasonable to think, then, “God does not exist, is not everything, and not all ideas” would be correct, but that goes totally against the sentence of God of Spinoza. He also proposes that everything that is infinite and that nothing is done. But as for the size of my arm? How can it be infinite, if not indefinitely go, say, compared to the distance of light? Spinoza also argues that the imagination and distinction of things, that things do not last. But according to Spinoza, is not over. How can the imagination a bit ‘, finally, when the finite is not it? Once again, the more I think about what he says in this book, the more it becomes absurd. I can tell you many others, but I will not bore you. Now I have this review 2 out of 5 stars because I think this book is very well organized and very well translated to do. Besides that, I can not see how this book, in my opinion, clearly the help of a doubt, I have already given you. Rating: 2 / 5
Spinoza’s Ethics is perhaps the first important response to the radical Cartesianism of his time. Although published posthumously (and as a curiosity by many of the closest friends of Spinoza), ethics quickly became the center of the metaphysical and epistemological attention in Europe. Drawing from a constellation of axioms, constructs an elaborate geometric Spinoza Castle of metaphysical thought. This magnificent work of investigative tilts in fact a lot of Cartesian notions of causality, and in fact, is sacred, as an alternative to the basic Kantian theory of knowledge was discussed. The thought of Spinoza’s substance, attributes and ways of being, is an essential source of joy and happiness to the great philosophers. This seductive and difficult text remains a major source of philosophical writing and pronunciation. Curley is still the best translation in English. Rating: 5 / 5
It seems almost impertinent of me to check masterpiece of Spinoza.

Therefore, it can be hit with joy and others of sadness, and insofar as they are in conflict with each other. “Spinoza teaches us morality without religion, but a total faith in God, he considers that there is nothing that can not be known.

Ethics is an excellent work is an absolute genius, a mathematical interpretation of the final G ~ d, the universe and man’s position in it. Do not read, because you think you have to fight with the philosophy of “big”, but for its beautiful symmetry pioneering rational thought. I am very excited that we recommend working for anyone interested in exploring their thoughts on philosophy, religion and psychology. If something is renewed importance of ethics in post-modern 21st century and its evolution Ereignisse.Stellen describe before setting a goal for human existence and the journey of “inner freedom”. To have the power, the power, before we start with G ~ of the universe, then working our way through nature, religion, society, science and development up to that frame the essence of man . Then imagine that we can make sense of the paradox of human violence, hatred, love and passion, fear and hope, and give a framework for the world and gain the peace and purpose, we sehen.Stellen also do not want to write one or more philosophical Eastern spiritual texts. We want to push and all of these previous experiments, including the ongoing reflection on practice Judeo-Christian. While it was not, we will see our meter. We integrate these beliefs and universal relations as a treatise on geometry to extrapolate in the manner of a mathematical proof, with definitions, axioms and theorems, and so demonstrate the possibility of reducing the philosophy and the quest for human fulfillment, we provide a scientific Übung.Nun We made our metaphysical journey during the Inquisition, while working, compared to the result of the church to run. Imagine that our ideas are so revolutionary that even heretics (most) Protestants and changeable philosophers with whom we must find safe harbor to see our thoughts with alarm.

Finally, allow me to take frail and suffer from diseases that our views necessarily make us poor and relatively unknown, hidden in darkness humble.
