Margaret Cavendish defended a version of this view by arguing that the movement of a hand prompts a bowl to move on its own. (15[1])Mary Astell argued that, if this view is correct, then the “creation of material objects is superfluous” in her correspondence with John Norris. An argument for this position is often described with the slogan “conservation is continuous creation.” In response to Gottfried Leibniz’s claim that this view was a “recourse to a miracle,” a thinker argued in his (-5[1])(*) “elucidations” that God (10[2])usually acts through general, rather than particular, volitions. Antoine Arnauld (10[1])criticized that thinker, (10[1])who defended this view (10[1])in a book that proposes a theory of “vision in God,” (10[1])arguing that God mediates perception. For 10 points, the book The Search After Truth defends what view championed (10[1])by Nicolas Malebranche (10[1])that holds that God is the true cause of all events? ■END■
