« According to Spinoza, Scripture is not there to give us scientific explanations of the world (the Galileo case is still in all minds), but rules of life enshrined in a list of commandments to which one must submit. These rules are essentially the practice of justice and charity, which form the foundation of all harmonious social life. But, while natural reason, and therefore philosophy, allow us to subscribe to it by our free consent and our full understanding, faith invites us to respect them by obedience. »
