William Okham: The Curse of Nominalism
This is Occam's famous razor - it cuts the spiritual vertical of being. It is an instrument of castration, the tool of the maniac killer.
While Occam himself still recognizes God as the creator of this material multitude, His role is not much different from the Big Bang of modern physics. Such a "God" is only the cause of material existence. And following the logic of "don't double essences" such a "God" will gradually disappear from modern Western European science. God disappears precisely because "there is no need to double essences," the materialists will develop Occam's idea until logical end. The material multitude itself is enough. And everything else is just a pure game of the intellect, desperately trying to cope with the multitude that surrounds it. And the bearer of the intellect is also only a material individual, another atom added to an infinite number of particles. Not parts, for only a whole can have a part, but particles, that is, parts that do not have a whole, being parts of something that does not exist.
