When we say God is a Spirit, we know what we mean, as well as we do when we say that the pyramids of Egypt are matter. Let us be content, therefore, to believe Him to be a Spirit, that is, an Essence that we know nothing of, in which originally and necessarily reside all energy, all power, all capacity, all activity, all wisdom, all goodness.
—John Adams, in a letter to Thomas Jefferson (17 January 1820)
