by Alexander of Lycopolis

No Customer Reviews

This work discusses the foundational aspects of Christian philosophy, emphasizing character formation and ethical virtues. It critiques the emergence of heretical doctrines, particularly the Manichaean view that posits a dualistic nature of reality, where God represents goodness and matter symbolizes evil. This perspective, introduced by figures like Papus, suggests that matter is inherently flawed, while God embodies all that is good. The narrative further elaborates on the relationship between the soul and matter, describing a divine plan for creation that ultimately aims to reconcile the two opposing forces in the universe.
