Finality and Intelligence :Leszek Figurski
From the Author Finality and Intelligence. The book is an evaluation and analysis of the last Way of the known Five Ways leading the human mind to the existence of God elaborated by Saint Thomas Aquinas. The Fifth Way will be considered within general context of Thomistic philosophy. It is not the intention to analyze all Five Ways of Thomas but center on the mind from orderliness of the finite beings observed in this world towards final infnite intelligence of the First Mover and the First Creative Cause of the world. The analysis is done on the metaphysical level; it acknowledges the right of the human mind to complete intelligibility of being as such and the power of the mind to answer the ultimate questions to which of course belongs the problem of the existence of God.
Finality and Intelligence: L.Figurski
The
book is a comprehensive analysis from the first Greek philosophers:
Anaxagoras of Clasomene, Plato, Aristotle to St. Aquinas, to Modern
Thinkers of the finality and purposiveness in the begins of the
cosmos. It contains an explanation of the concept of design visible
in nature and the existence of God from the final causality
especially in the Five Ways but primarily the Fifth Way of Thomas
Aquinas and also the argument from world order to the Cosmic
Intelligence in the Contra Gentiles. The argument had not been before
properly elucidated and under the impact of some Modern thinkers and
the biological theory of evolution very much attacked and quite often
considered as outdated. The thesis of the book is an attempt to proof
and show the opposite and the validity of the inference and
purposiveness and order in nature to the transcendent intelligent
cause of it. The book is written for all those involved in the
discussion whether there is a strong philosophical basis for the
arguments of God's existence. In our times there exist a strong
tendency to consider the arguments of Thomas Aquinas to be
insufficient and they are easily discarded or even neglected without
a critical metaphysical evaluation. The book attempts to point to the
permanent validity of the design argument.
