As it stands, this argument cannot count against Cartesian mechanism, since Descartes' material particles do not move fortuitously, but according to divinely-established laws of nature. However, More did not believe that the initial chaos in Descartes' cosmogony, ruled by mechanical law, could have devolved into the ordered world we know without guiding Providence. A more serious problem is that 'blind fortuitous jumblings' are necessarily not subject to any natural laws whatever, whether mechnical or not.
18 In the 1662 edition of the Antidote, and later in the Enchiridion metaphysicum, More introduced the air-pump experiments that Boyle reported in his New Experiments physico-mechanical touching the spring of the air (1660), to show that one of them at least could not be accounted for in mechanical terms. 19 How can the sucker of an exhausted air-pump draw upwards of its own accord a weight of 100 Ibs. or more? More concedes that Boyle's hypothesis of 'an elastick power in the air' is the most plausible explanation, yet such an enormous pressure ought to exist everywhere in the air; and a pat of butter of the same diameter as the sucker, for example, ought to be squeezed flat, and the liquids squeezed out of it, with a total force of 200 Ibs, which obviously does not happen.
