28. God / C. Attitudes to God / 2. Pantheism

7256	In Utopia, the Supreme Being is identical with Nature [More,T]
	Full Idea: Everyone in Utopia agrees that the Supreme Being (which they call Mythras) is identical with Nature.
	From: Thomas More (Utopia [1516], Bk 2)
	A reaction: This sounds remarkably like full-blown Spinozean pantheism, though it should be interpreted with caution. It certainly seems to show that pantheism was a possibility in the minds of late medieval religious thinkers.
