There is no one happier than a philosopher reading in that great book that God has unfolded before our eyes. The truths he reveals constitute his property. With them he nourishes and elevates his soul; his life is calm, he has nothing to fear from people, and his tender wife will not come to cut off his nose.

Materialists, naturalists and atheists have a fairly long history of denying the existence of things that do not fit into their very narrow, limited picture of the world. God is always number one on their list of objects of denial. But the public does not realize, and atheists do not publicize, the fact that their naturalistic, materialistic philosophy requires the denial of much more than God. They don't want the world to know this, because then people will wake up and see what a stupid picture of the world these philosophers are imposing on them. For example, the strict scientific empiricism demanded by the New Atheists—the idea that only those things exist that science observes and discovers—also requires a denial of the existence of mind. Science has not discovered intelligence. Only electrical signals can be found in the brain, but this is not the same as the mind. Have you ever seen someone else's thoughts? Have you experienced their internal states? Did you feel their emotions? No. All we see are external actions. The inner minds of others are beyond our means of perception. Does this mean that we do not believe that others have consciousness similar to ours? If we begin to consistently apply the standards of scientific empiricism that atheists actively use, we will inevitably come to this conclusion. This is absurd! This is why we reject scientific empiricism and the simple-minded atheism based on it.

We philosophers are only prophets for fools who listen to us, for the place of listening to their hearts.

Your philosophers grumble that everything has already been described by the ancients, and now they have nothing to discover, but this is a clear delusion.

Philosophers will realize that all their knowledge, as well as the knowledge of their predecessors, is only a tiny part of what is and what they do not yet know.

Maybe the world exists precisely because in general it is better than nothing? Some philosophers think so. They call themselves "axiarchists" (from the Greek "value is the most important!") and argue that space could have emerged in response to the need for value. If they are right, then the world (and our existence in it) may be better than we think. We should take a closer look around to notice its subtle virtues – for example, hidden harmonies and small joys.
