Order of Things

Exploring the interconnectedness of cosmic, mental, and societal orders, the author delves into the idea that these structures reflect a deeper unity. Despite modern tendencies to attribute existence to randomness, a persistent order emerges across various domains, suggesting a common good. Drawing on Aquinas, the text argues that the universe’s complexity and beauty hint at an external creator. Ultimately, the human mind's affinity for discovering this order reveals a profound relationship between existence and understanding, enriching our appreciation of the world.
