Sir Isaac Newton,s Idea of God
BY Garrett y. Serviss.

A reader. referring to something
that | said about the Almighty in an
article describing mans place in the
universe, writes me a letter in
which. ne demands. in what seems
a defiant tone:
who is Cod? What is God?
Where is God?"
In meditating on this smashing
volley of questions / happened to
recall what Sir Isaac Newton wrote
on the subject of God, in a most
unexpected place. to wit. the close
Of his Incompatible Principal" or
Mathematical Principles of Natur-
al Philosophy" of which Laplace.
the great French mathematical
genius. said that it was "pre-emi-
nent above all the other produc-
tions of the human intellect while
of Newton himself it has been
averred that He was the greatest
man who appears in the history of
science. and possibly the greatest
intellect that has ever worked on
earth"
And il occurred TO me that my
correspondent might be more m
pressed by what so great mind as
that of Newton thought Abort God
than by anything that | could offer
on the subject. particularly since
Newton covered all the three points
of inquiry. viz, the personality, the
nature. and the location of God.
In a general scholium." at the
end Of his mighty masterpiece of
mathematical reasoning. Newton
says Of the solar system and the sys-
TENS of the fixed stars that they

and powerful Being" Then he goes

Just as coal, when 1t burns, leaves
