In the universe anything that happens comes from the essential nature of objects, or of God/Nature. All believe that they speak by a free command of the mind, whilst, in truth, they have no power to restrain the impulse which they have to speak.[97] Thus for Spinoza morality and ethical judgement like choice is predicated on an illusion.

This picture of Spinoza's determinism is ever more illuminated through reading this famous quote in Ethics: the infant believes that it is by free will that it seeks the breast; the angry boy believes that by free will he wishes vengeance; the timid man thinks it is with free will he seeks flight; the drunkard believes that by a free command of his mind he speaks the things which when sober he wishes he had left unsaid. 381.

For Spinoza, Blame and Praise are non existent human ideals only fathomable in the mind because we are so acclimatized to human consciousness interlinking with our experience that we have a false ideal of choice predicated upon this. For him, even human behaviour is fully determined, with freedom being our capacity to know we are determined and to understand why we act as we do.
