Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

The unmoved mover is from Aristotle.
I thought that was from Thomas Aquinass' quinque vieae (or however you say it; fuck latin).
Much of Thomas Aquinas is a meditation on Aristotle, and the unmoved mover is Aristotle. It's from metaphysics
I see. That makes sense. My first exposure to the idea was in a mandatory theology class at my catholic high school where the teacher made a big deal at how "irrefutable" they were. Catholic school is weird.
