Philosopherly, the soul of one being is a perfect guide to, or the center of, other beings. Aristotle was the first to describe the world as the “place of life, but also the source of things.” Plato believed the person on earth is more like God, but as an “enlightened one.” The world began as a place of darkness, but by the late fifth century BC, people began to inhabit these “places of darkness,” and so human beings died out. Plato thought of living life as the “mixed nature” of physical reality, but he thought it resembled a “goddesslike essence.” Plato believed that all living things are created in two parts – the two minds. ———————————————————————————————————-

Title (Plato, The Republic) The Great Apologetic Epistles [Text] The Great Apologetic Epistles
The Great Apologist: Heresy with the Divine Truth; His Interpretation of the Gospel to Mankind on the Resurrection of the Redeemer (Pseudo-Diodorus Siculus)
The Roman Catholic Church, like the European Orthodox Church, continues the work of the Orthodox and Christian Churches in condemning blasphemies. In The Great Apologetic Epistles by Athanasius Paulus, Athanasius Paulus offers three key words and chapters: (1) ‘The great Apologist’ (an allegorical phrase), (2) ‘The resurrection of the Redeemer’ (a theological doctrine), and (3) ‘The resurrection of man only’ (a theological doctrine, especially an Aristotelian conception of man).
The Apologists seek to avoid doctrinal disagreement, because they do not rely on the argument from outside. They try to establish the authority of the Church in accordance with Tradition, by applying an ethical standard to the question, to the question about the life of God and in his nature (this is the most important principle that
In the book Timaeus, Plato described the Father of the universe as a very masterful being and a divine planner of the human body. Plato revealed that the Father told the other Gods to create mortal figures of them. Plato recalled the words of God, “There are three kinds of mortal creature yet uncreated, and unless they are created the world will be imperfect, as it will not have in it every kind of living creature which it must have if it is to be perfect” (57). The Father of the universe is very precise in the way the beings are created. He tells his Gods to use the mixture from the soul of the world to create the mortal human beings. This mixture consisted of fire, earth, water, and air. They used this mixture and bonded together what came to be human beings. Human beings were created with divine body and soul that was similar to the gods, with the only difference; human beings were mortal. Plato insisted that God had a plan for all human beings, “the first incarnation would be one and the same for all and each would be sown in its appropriate instrument of time and be born as the most god-fearing of living things” (58). Human beings were created as two different sexes, “the better of the two was that which in future would be called man” (58). Plato stated that “man,” was the stronger, more complex sex that was created as a proportional being.
Plato insisted the human body was created in a divine approach, making the head in a spherical shape. The head consists of the brain, which controls the entire body, without a brain and a soul a body would just be a body. The soul is what keeps a human strong and the brain is what keeps a human alive. When looking at a human body, if one were to cut it straight down the middle between the eyes, each side would look just like the other. Plato illustrated that the head was “the divinest part of us which controls the rest”(61). The head was placed on top of the body so that the body could serve the head in any way. Plato acknowledged that the Gods added two arms and two legs for easy mobility, which “should act as a convenient vehicle” (61). Plato insisted that the Gods believed that the front was “more honorable and commanding than the back” (61). Human beings move forward in a graceful and elegant way. It is the brain that tells the human to do things it is the body that actually does them.
In this dialogue, Plato claimed that God gave human beings the ability to speak, see, and hear so they could learn from the Gods and use them as guidance
