À propos de cet audio
In this episode, we explore the life and mind of Thomas Aquinas, the "supreme architect" of Western theology who defined the Roman Catholic Church’s intellectual tradition. We uncover the dramatic life of the man nicknamed the "Dumb Ox"—a friar whose family once kidnapped him and held him prisoner for a year to stop him from joining the Dominicans,.Join us as we break down his massive synthesis of faith and reason, designed to resolve the 13th-century crisis caused by the rediscovery of Aristotle,. We examine his famous "Five Ways" (Quinque Viae)—logical arguments arguing that the cosmos proves the existence of a Creator through motion, causality, and design,. Finally, we discuss why Aquinas insisted that "Grace does not destroy nature, but perfects it," and look at how his intellect compares to the Puritan theologian Jonathan Edwards
