The Deity would then require the same trouble in dressing, and the same care of the body, that mankind does.

He must walk, run, lie down, lean, sit, hold, speak, and discourse.

You need not be told the consequence of making the Gods male and female.
Therefore I cannot sufficiently wonder how this chief of yours came to entertain these strange opinions.

But you constantly insist on the certainty of this tenet, that the Deity is both happy and immortal.
Supposing he is so, would his happiness be less perfect if he had not two feet?
Or cannot that blessedness or beatitude--call it which you will (they are both harsh terms, but we must mollify them by use)--can it not, I say, exist in that sun, or in this world, or in some eternal mind that has not human shape or limbs?
All you say against it is, that you never saw any happiness in the sun or the world.

What, then?
Did you ever see any world but this?
No, you will say.
