Peter of John Olivi <i>The Sum of Questions on The Sentences [of Peter Lombard]</i>

[Arguments Pro] 1 God, it seems. The subject of a science19 is that to which everything in that science is reduced. As such it should be the final, simple element of the body of knowledge. In the whole of Scripture however nothing is more final and simple than God. Therefore, and so on. 2 Also, the most lofty and high and encompassing science should treat the most lofty and high and encompassing subject. And so here: no subject can be more lofty, high, and encompassing than God. Therefore, and so on. 3 Also, it seems we can deduce our conclusion from its very name, for it is called theology or knowledge about the divine, which means about God.
