Aristotle's Theory of the Divine

Aristotle's theory of the divine is an improvement on plato. He has captured something of what plato wanted to do with his theory of forms, by tracing physical phenomena back to immaterial causes. The sole activity of the divine movers turns out to be a distinctively human activity, thinking. These mo Moves are nothing but separate intellects and the spheres move in imitation of their eternal thinking by performing eternal circular motions. So aristotle describes god as a kind of final cause, saying that it moves the outermost heaven the way that the beloved moves the lover.
