In my view, as well as that of Saint Thomas Aquinas, faith and reason are linked inseparably. Reason eventually leads one to faith in the divine. This is better known as Thomism.

wow, I totally disagree with that.I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire0 -

This is better know as blind-faith. Better known in your more urban areas as 'stupidity'.0 -

Haha, Thomas Aquinas was stupid?? Hmmmm...I don't think even his biggest detractors say that!All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

Why do you worry about that? My next abortion cannot kill you. Furthermore, the logic above would suggest that I have a moral obligation to "potential". By that logic, I should just spend all of my time mating in order to produce as much life as possible. Tell me, how many children do you have?In my view, as well as that of Saint Thomas Aquinas, faith and reason are linked inseparably. Reason eventually leads one to faith in the divine.

Reason also led me to faith -- a faith in Satan. Satan tells me to burn things. Glad to hear that I'm objectively justified in doing so.0 -

I don't think it's stupid, but it's certainly not genius.I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny.

Well what do YOU think? Using others' beliefs to argue your beliefs sucks. I stand on what I said.0 -

I don't think you would know anything if you didn't rely on others' ideas. What's 1+1? Someone taught you that.All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

It's called forming your opinion based on what you are taught--not reciting it. HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM APPLES!!!!0 -
