	Ralph Cudworth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cudworth criticizes two main forms of materialistic atheism, the atomic, adopted by Democritus, Epicurus and Hobbes; and the hylozoic, attributed to Strato of Lampsacus, 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 clamour 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, whence they are communicated to finite understandings.

		Ralph Cudworth was born in Aller, Somerset and died on 26 June 1688.
		In philosophy, as in theology, Cudworth was an anti-determinist who strove to defend theism in rational terms and to establish the certainty of knowledge and the existence of unchangeable moral principles in the face of the challenges of Hobbes and Spinoza.
		Cudworth’s debt to Plato’s theory of anamnesis is clear, but he also utilizes the Stoic concept of prolepses (common notions or, literally, anticipations), arguing that the mind operates by a kind of foreknowledge or anticipation: ‘knowledge is a comprehension of a thing proleptically, and as it were, a priori’.
