Please read the two letters well as they will provide additional material
on Spinoza as well as a response to a problem that Spinoza did not
cover, at least not in the sections of his work that we read for class.
Thanks, everyone.

Hi, sir!
I'd just like to say that I was very much amazed by the insights drawn
from your Spinoza lecture. I think it's among the best lectures I've ever
sat in, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, although we weren't able to spend
as much time on it as I wanted.
I'd like to know the answers because my rational side very much
agrees with what Spinoza said. I feel much more comfortable with that
notion of God than the notion of an Almighty Creator who
micromanages humanity. But I'd just like to know if there's something
more I can get out of believing in that understanding of God.
Thank you in advance, sir!

Hello, _______.
Thanks for the letter. I'm really glad Spinoza made a lot of sense to
you.
The only gap that I see in Spinoza is this: If it's correct that the mind is
an extension or mode of God, then he must provide for an explanation
as to why the human mind is the way it is.
Cheers, ______!
