Baker argued against pluralism's claim that God would not creat lifeless worlds. In this work: "There cannot . be any absurdity in saying that all things were created for the sake of this inferior World, and the inhabitants there of, and they that have such thoughts of it, seem not to have consider'd, who it was that died to redeem it.".
