This paper looks at Thomas Aquinas' philosophy, five proofs of proving the existence of God, the criticisms of the proofs, and the problem of evil within his philosophy. The author's main thesis is: Aquinas' intense engagement with Aristotle's thought profoundly influenced his own. He adopts essential insights from Aristotle, as is especially evident in his theory of knowledge. He rejects Augustine's idea that we need divine illumination to attain certain knowledge. The human intellect has a natural light that is itself sufficient for the knowledge of truths. The way to intellective cognition passes from sensory cognition through abstraction: the intellect abstracts the intelligible content from sense images.Pages: 20 Sources: 7 Format: MLA |
