Unstated Assumptions
editThe distinction between Formal principle and Material principle seems very dubious. It purports to follow the well-known distinction between form and matter, but appears to be little more than a hatchet job.
The article lacks references to make the distinction meaningful. Who precisely makes such distinctions? What sort of theological context do they make them in? What are the underlying assumptions behind them? We are given no precise way to make such a determination. As such the distinction seems fairly useless in practice.
