Spinozism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Spinozism is the pantheistic philosophical system of Baruch Spinoza a.k.a. Benedict de Spinoza, which defines "God" as a singular self-subsistent substance, and both matter and thought attributes of such. Spinoza claimed that the third kind of knowledge, intuition, is the highest truth attainable.

In Spinozism, the concept of a personal relationship with God comes from the position that you are a part of an infinite interdependent "organism".
