"It was really difficult to get used to this early English writing. But after the first while, it became easier and easier. I guess you could equate it with Shakespeare, although the Kant was from an entirely different genre.
Spinoza was from an era in European history before the empiricists. His writings were, therefore somewhat religious but very deep thinking in the nature of God and philosophical thought.
I actually liked this piece because it was revealing about the new direction that philosophy took for its time.
Spinoza is brilliant and not to be underestimated."

"I've been assured it's still relevant. I tend not to trust any philosophy pre-Marx and pre-Darwin. It all seems too metaphysical and tied to God. Let me have philosophy at some point after the understanding that humanity has not just plopped into this world in order to make sense of it. I still need to give it time."
