E and to be extended in space, are two primary and coordinate possibilities and facts of mind. Some of the most determined opposition to attrib- uting extension to mind, arises from the powerful prejudice existing in many against supposing that mind and matter can possess a common property. 144 "^^^ PRINCIPLES OF KNOWLEDGE. Extension, they say, is indeed a property of matter; but to assign it to mind is to materialize mind. This prejudice is a form or transformation of the old philo- sophical a...nd theological doctrine that matter or body is the seat of evil, and that mind is confined, soiled, and degraded in association with body. It reveals itself also in the contempt sometimes heaped, by the most refined spiritualists and transcendentalists, upon mere sensation, as being something received from, or occasioned or shared by, the body. To attribute extension to mind is certainly to affirm so far that mind is like matter. But when all has been said, no just reason is produced why there may not exist, con- trary to Spinoza, two substances, both possessing extension; and why mind may not possess both thought and extension in unity, or be substantia extensa ct co^ifcnis.
