28. God / C. Attitudes to God / 5. Atheism

3660	Atheism arises from empiricism, because God is intangible [Descartes]
	Full Idea: The existence of God has been doubted by some, because they attributed too much to the perceptions of the senses, and God can be neither seen nor touched.
	From: René Descartes (Preface to 'Principles of Philosophy' [1647], p.180)
