Extrinsic finality : ウィキペディア英語版
Extrinsic finality
Extrinsic finality is a principle of the philosophy of teleology that holds that a being has a final cause or purpose external to that being itself, in contrast to an intrinsic finality, or self-contained purpose.
One example is the view that minerals are "designed" to be used by plants that are in turn "designed" to be used by animals.
Over-emphasizing extrinsic finality is often criticized as leading to the anthropic attribution of every event to a divine purpose, or superstition. For instance, "If I hadn't been at the store today, I wouldn't have found that $100 on the ground. God must have intended for me to go to the store so I would find that money." or "We won the game today because of my lucky socks." Such abuses were criticized by Francis Bacon,〔"De Dignitate et Augmentis Scientiarum," III, iv〕 Descartes, 〔"Principia Philosophiæ", I, 28; III, 2, 3; "Meditationes", III, IV〕 and Spinoza.〔Ethica, I, prop. 36 app.)〕
