An Overview of the Philosophy of Epicurus - Black and White Poster

Here is a first draft of an Overview of the Philosophy of Epicurus that can be printed out on a black and white printer, and then pinned up on your wall or refrigerator. I'll make others soon (such as also listing some quotes from texts, and another one on ethics). I welcome any comments and further suggestions, or ideas for other posters.

While I agree with the "not supernatural" we've seen how this can be misunderstood. I don't know a workaround but mentioning it.

I'm not a fan of using "Alpha and Omega." It's misleading at best and carries too much Judeo-Christian baggage. The literal words are "beginning, foundation,source" and "goal, fulfillment": arkhē and telos.
