This man's work Three Letters to Lamy was a rejection of the claim made by the title priest that this man's own Treatise on Ethics supported a quietist position. This philosopher attached a postscript to one of his works which chastised Robert Desgabets and Simon Foucher for failing to note that the work in question argued that the ideas we perceive exist in God, not in us.

For 10 points, name the author of the book The Search After Truth, a French philosopher who formulated occasionalism.
