  Ralph Cudworth
Cudworth criticizes two main forms of materialistic atheism, the atomic, adopted by Democritus, Epicurus and Thomas Hobbes; and the hylozoic, attributed to Strato, which explains everything by the supposition of an inward self-organizing life in matter.
As Bolingbroke said, Cudworth "read too much to think enough, and admired too much to think freely." It is no calamity that natural procrastination, or the clamor caused by his candid treatment of atheism and by certain heretical tendencies detected by orthodox criticism in his view of the Trinity, made Cudworth leave the work unfinished.
Cudworth's ideas, like Plato's, have "a constant and never-failing entity of their own", such as we see in geometrical figures; but, unlike Plato's, they exist in the mind of God, from where they are communicated to finite understandings.
