Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a dialogue on the nature of the gods, pits the Epicurean Velleius against the Stoic Balbus and skeptical Cotta. Balbus insists that gods exist in human form, but that they are composed of a subtle, ethereal matter. Cotta counters that this is merely a rehash of conventional wisdom, and that there is no proof for the existence of gods. Velleius, taking a middle ground, argues that while there is no definitive proof for or against the existence of gods, it is reasonable to believe in their existence based on the innate human tendency to do so. The author explores the philosophical underpinnings of these arguments, delving into the nature of matter, the role of reason and faith, and the relationship between humans and the divine. Through engaging dialogue, this book offers a comprehensive examination of one of philosophy's oldest and most fundamental questions.
