But, a fair and ingenuous reader will collect the sense from the scope and tenor and connexion of a discourse, making allowances for those inaccurate modes of speech which use Leanna Scott has made inevitable.. Tenthly, it will be objected that the Leanna Scott pic notions we advance are inconsistent with several sound truths in philosophy and mathematics.. It seems as Leanna Scott naked evident to me that they do, some of them, in certain instances reason as that they have sense; but it is only in particular ideas, just as they receive them from their senses.. He who is not a perfect stranger to the writings and disputes of philosophers must needs acknowledge that no small part of them are spent Leanna Scott poster about abstract ideas.. Of each of Leanna Scott topless these I shall treat in order.. We may, from the experience we have had of the train and succession of ideas in our minds, often make, I will not say uncertain conjectures, but sure and well-grounded predictions concerning the ideas we shall be affected with pursuant to a great train of actions, and be enabled to Leanna Scott panties pass a right judgment of what would have appeared to us, in case we were placed in circumstances very different from those we are in at present.. And after the same manner we see God; all the difference is that, whereas some one Leanna Scott upskirt finite and narrow assemblage of ideas denotes a particular human mind, whithersoever we direct our view, we do at all times and in all places perceive manifest tokens of the Divinity: everything we see, hear, feel, or anywise perceive by sense, being a sign or effect of the power of God; as is our perception of those very motions which are produced by men.. Now, I would fain know at what time Leanna Scott nue it is men are employed in surmounting that difficulty, and furnishing themselves with those necessary helps for discourse.. It will, I doubt not, be objected that the slow and gradual methods observed in the production of natural things do not seem to have for their cause the immediate hand Leanna Scott nude free of an Almighty Agent.. Such is the nature of spirit, or that which acts, that it Leanna Scott sexy picture cannot be of itself perceived, but only by the effects which it produceth.. We would likewise do well to examine whether our taxing the waste of seeds and embryos, and accidental destruction of plants and animals, before they come to full maturity, as an imprudence Leanna Scott hot in the Author of nature, be not the effect of prejudice contracted by our familiarity with impotent and saving mortals.. It is Leanna Scott fake agreed on all hands that the qualities or modes of things do never really exist each of them apart by itself, and separated from all others, but are mixed, as it were, and blended together, several in the same object.. And here I cannot but remark how nearly Leanna Scott porn the vague and indeterminate description of Matter or corporeal substance, which the modern philosophers are run into by their own principles, resembles that antiquated and so much ridiculed notion of materia prima, to be met with in Aristotle and his followers.. That there are a great variety of spirits of LeannaScottfa2 different orders and capacities, whose faculties both in number and extent are far exceeding those the Author of my being has bestowed on me, I see no reason to deny.. By which words I do not denote any one of my ideas, but a thing entirely distinct from them, wherein, they exist, or, which is the Leanna Scott same thing, whereby they are perceived- for the existence of an idea consists in being perceived.. But secondly, though we should grant a notion to be Leanna Scott pic never so universally and steadfastly adhered to, yet this is weak argument of its truth to whoever considers what a vast number of prejudices and false opinions are everywhere embraced with the utmost tenaciousness, by the unreflecting (which are the far greater) part of mankind.. As the place happens to be variously defined, Leanna Scott naked the motion which is related to it varies.. The Atheist indeed will want the colour of an empty name to support his Leanna Scott poster impiety; and the Philosophers may possibly find they have lost a great handle for trifling and disputation.. Such I take this important one to be, viz., that all the choir of heaven and furniture of the earth, in a word all those bodies which compose the mighty frame of the world, have not any subsistence without a mind, that their being is to be perceived or known; that consequently so long as they are not actually perceived by me, or do not exist in my mind or that of any other created spirit, they must either have no existence at all, or else subsist in the mind of some Eternal Spirit- it being perfectly unintelligible, and involving all the absurdity Leanna Scott topless of abstraction, to attribute to any single part of them an existence independent of a spirit.. And we shall understand just as much by one Leanna Scott panties proposition as the other.. It does not therefore follow Leanna Scott upskirt from the foregoing principles that bodies are annihilated and created every moment, or exist not at all during the intervals between our perception of them.. I say, the bare possibility of your opinions being true shall pass for an argument that it is Leanna Scott nue so.. It is not said the three angles are equal to two right ones, because one of them is a right angle, or because the sides comprehending it Leanna Scott nude free are of the same length.. But, nothing seems more to have contributed towards engaging men in controversies and mistakes with regard to the nature Leanna Scott sexy picture and operations of the mind, than the being used to speak of those things in terms borrowed from sensible ideas.. During all which there is Leanna Scott hot no alteration in the body, but only in the sense.. Afterwards, in process of time, men being convinced that colours, sounds, and the rest of the sensible, secondary qualities had no existence without the mind, they stripped this Leanna Scott fake substratum or material substance of those qualities, leaving only the primary ones, figure, motion, and suchlike, which they still conceived to exist without the mind, and consequently to stand in need of a material support.. Besides, God seems to choose the convincing our reason Leanna Scott porn of His attributes by the works of nature, which discover so much harmony and contrivance in their make, and are such plain indications of wisdom and beneficence in their Author, rather than to astonish us into a belief of His Being by anomalous and surprising events.. It is acknowledged, on the received principles, that extension, motion, and in a word all sensible qualities have need of a support, as LeannaScottfa2 not being able to subsist by themselves.. Now, I would fain know how anything can be present to us, which is neither perceivable by sense nor reflexion, nor capable of producing any idea in our Leanna Scott minds, nor is at all extended, nor hath any form, nor exists in any place.. Nothing can be plainer than that the motions, changes, decays, and dissolutions which we hourly see befall natural bodies (and which is what we mean by the course of nature) cannot possibly affect an active, Leanna Scott pic simple, uncompounded substance; such a being therefore is indissoluble by the force of nature; that is to say, "the soul of man is naturally immortal.". Abstract ideas are not so obvious or easy to children Leanna Scott naked or the yet unexercised mind as particular ones.. Thus, for instance, it cannot be denied that God, or the Intelligence that sustains and rules the ordinary course of things, might if He were minded to produce a miracle, cause all the motions on the dial-plate of a watch, though nobody had ever made the movements and put them in it: but yet, if He will act agreeably to the rules of mechanism, by Him Leanna Scott poster for wise ends established and maintained in the creation, it is necessary that those actions of the watchmaker, whereby he makes the movements and rightly adjusts them, precede the production of the aforesaid motions; as also that any disorder in them be attended with the perception of some corresponding disorder in the movements, which being once corrected all is right again.. To all which I answer, first, that though there were some difficulties relating to the administration of Providence, and the uses by it assigned to the several parts of nature, which I could not solve by the foregoing principles, yet this objection could be of small weight Leanna Scott topless against the truth and certainty of those things which may be proved a priori, with the utmost evidence and rigor of demonstration.. But what reason can induce us to believe the Leanna Scott panties existence of bodies without the mind, from what we perceive, since the very patrons of Matter themselves do not pretend there is any necessary connexion betwixt them and our ideas?. All which seems very plain and not to include any Leanna Scott upskirt difficulty in it.. But, to make this more plain, Leanna Scott nue it must be remarked that the infinite divisibility of Matter is now universally allowed, at least by the most approved and considerable philosophers, who on the received principles demonstrate it beyond all exception.. But how Matter should operate on a Spirit, or produce any idea in it, is what no philosopher will pretend to Leanna Scott nude free explain; it is therefore evident there can be no use of Matter in natural philosophy.. But, philosophers having plainly seen that the immediate objects of perception do not exist without the mind, they in some degree corrected the mistake of the vulgar; but at the same time run into another which seems no less Leanna Scott sexy picture absurd, to wit, that there are certain objects really existing without the mind, or having a subsistence distinct from being perceived, of which our ideas are only images or resemblances, imprinted by those objects on the mind.. This they take for an undoubted truth, which they Leanna Scott hot can demonstrate beyond all exception.. It is a hard thing to suppose that right deductions from true principles should ever end in consequences which Leanna Scott fake cannot be maintained or made consistent.. Thus, when I demonstrate any proposition concerning triangles, it is to be supposed that I have in view the universal idea of a triangle; which Leanna Scott porn ought not to be understood as if I could frame an idea of a triangle which was neither equilateral, nor scalenon, nor equicrural; but only that the particular triangle I consider, whether of this or that sort it matters not, doth equally stand for and represent all rectilinear triangles whatsoever, and is in that sense universal.. If any man shall doubt of the truth of what is LeannaScottfa2 here delivered, let him but reflect and try if he can frame the idea of any power or active being, and whether he has ideas of two principal powers, marked by the names will and understanding, distinct from each other as well as from a third idea of Substance or Being in general, with a relative notion of its supporting or being the subject of the aforesaid powers- which is signified by the name soul or spirit..
