Aristotle believed in a universal goal for all things. That meant chance and random selection doesn't exist in nature. Since nature was what the first philosophers turned to, Aristotle looked there for some answers. Nature has unconscious purposes. There are mistakes in nature though, he points out. He believed in change and cause of change, and since nature has so much order it must have a cause. Aristotle was very rational and tried to be logically precise so he turned to science for the answers. He believed that a particular has substance, which causes form.
