evokes images of gypsies and crystal balls, that is, it implies the “seeing”
of contingent things, so we prefer the first (and primary) definition of the

(or Sapienza) that transcends any such consideration.
Mr. Berkeley’s comments, both here
and elsewhere, simply disqualify him from any intelligent discussion of this
topic.
