    from his wikipedia page.

    De Differentiis
    In De Differentiis Plethon compares Aristotle's and Plato's conceptions of God, arguing that Plato credits God with more exalted powers as "creator of every kind of intelligible and separate substance, and hence of our entire universe", while Aristotle has God as only the motive force of the universe; Plato's God is also the end and final cause of existence, while Aristotle's God is only the end of movement and change.[14] Plethon derides Aristotle for discussing unimportant matters such as shellfish and embryos while failing to credit God with creating the universe,[14] for believing the heavens are composed of a fifth element, and for his view that contemplation was the greatest pleasure; the latter aligned him with Epicurus, Plethon argued, and he attributed this same pleasure-seeking to monks, whom he accused of laziness.[8] Later, in response to Gennadius' Defence of Aristotle, Plethon argued in his Reply that Plato's God was more consistent with Christian doctrine than Aristotle's, and this, according to Darien DeBolt, was probably in part an attempt to escape suspicion of heterodoxy.[14]

    So search for a book De Differentis

    No to mention that just a year ago you were posing with a Plethon Gemistos avatar using some of his quotes to attack Orthodoxy.

    "I am a muslim. Muslims look down on pagans. I look down on pagans. This is the depth of your vision.

    What a shitlord.
    While Orthodoxy became Paganism unintentionally Pletho openly advocated worshiping of poseidon etc.. and he talked about return of "poseidon" lol.

    He was a friend of Emperor therefore he was allowed to live in Mystras.

    After his death his all belongings were burned, including books he wrote.

    Ecumenical Patriarchate called him "Devil"

    On my Dislike level Pagans are more disliked than orthodox semi-pagans.

    My God. Pure ideology.
    Being Greek is an experienced grounded into nation, not consumption.
