CHAPTER

The Satisfaction of Human Desires through God

This chapter explores the idea of God satisfying all human desires, focusing on the distinction between physical and spiritual desires. It discusses how in the presence of God, spiritual fulfillment can overshadow physical needs, and delves into topics such as sustaining the physical body, desires, consequences of actions, and ethical considerations. The conversation also touches on theological perspectives, ethical dilemmas, and St. Thomas' observations on beauty, truth, and goodness.
