Santayana, George
(1863-1952) aesthetic humanist; wrote 1. Skepticism and Animal Faith, 2. The Realm of Spirit, 3. Reason in Religion, 4. Winds of Doctrine, and 5. Realms of Being. Reality consists in a plurality of material
existences known through the essences. Essences are the ideally possible modes or forms of matter. Material existences including minds embody essences. Minds intuit essences not material existences. Material existences must be accepted on "animal faith." God is the highest symbol of man's highest ideals
