Charles-Claude Genest was a Catholic priest who in his versified work, Principles of philosophy, proposed evidence of the existence of God and of the immortality of the soul. In this undertaking he used as his philosophical foundation the ideas of Descartes, in particular, his cogito principle, the ontological argument for the existence of God, and his physical theory of vertices and the plenum. However, Genest used in his arguments to a much larger extent physico-theological ideas than Descartes did.
