I'm trying to think of an example: maybe just listening to someone.
I think it factors in, in St. Thomas Aquinas' proof of the existence of God, if I recall correctly, God being the Final, or Uncaused Cause. I was never very good at Aquinas, but our fellow FReeper by the same name was kind enough to give me a link to Aquinas Online.
Aquinas Online, The Four Causes If I make it to Heaven, St. Thomas Aquinas is someone I want to speak with, because in this life, he's still way over my head-and I'm over the hill! 👵
