draw a line that splits a paper down the middle. the instant you draw it, there is the left side and the right side. they are both empty and the same color, but one is on the right and one is on the left. if you flip the page upside down, the right one becomes the left one and the left one becomes the right one. so it doesnt matter which one is which, but what matters is the line that seperates them.

>Spinoza didn't believe that, retard
Thats why he keeps on repeating deus sive natura over and over again in the Ethics, right?
>“That eternal and infinite being we call God, or Nature, acts from the same necessity from which he exists”
Also (not addressed to you in particular) it is incorrect to imply spinoza held that god was everything. No, god is that which is eternally necessarily similar in all objects, that is, it is the substance underlying all modes of existence. This is why Schopenhauer, when commenting on Spinoza's philosophy in his FFRSR, says Spinoza's god is only nominal, aka, it is just a name given to a general abstract idea.
