Aquinas btfo'd? Christanon 02/24/19 (Sun) 03:10:40 c8099b No.774941

I found this pic written by a Muslim who must have got pissed off by that pic of Aquinas attacking Islam. Was wondering if in this pic Aquinas was btfo'd and wanted to know y'alls opinion.

I'm actually really interested to see an example of Aquinas using Aristotelian reasoning; all the arguments I've seen of his tend to use Platonic reasoning. I'll admit, tho, I haven't read everything Aquinas wrote.

Cultists of Muhammud tend to claim they made everything, too, which makes me skeptical about Aquinas "copying Islamic (((scholars)))" (why hasn't anyone come up with echos for the pedo-cultists?)

>Aquinas copied Islamic philosophers

This is retarded. Aquinas was famous for refuting Muslim philosophers. There were even groups of Jews that read Aquinas to learn how to argue against the teachings of Averroes.

>Aquinas didn't understand Aristotle

No, he simply disagreed with him on a number of things, such as whether or not the Earth was eternal. The influence of Aristotle on Aquinas is vastly overestimated by people who haven't read his work. Sure he was influenced by Aristotle, as almost everyone that came after him was, but Aquinas was a different beast altogether.

>Luther wrote the 95 Theses because Aquinas was wrong

The 95 Theses are almost entirely about how Luther was mad at the Church for pardoning sins for bribes.

I'm not sure who could take this seriously seeing as Thomism is a legitimate Christian philosophical platform and Islam has…???

The author of that image has clearly never read Aquinas, not even the Prima Pars.

I just checked out prima pars on this website: http://www.newadvent.org/summa/1.htm

And the first couple lines said:

>ESSENCE: We cannot know what God is, but only what He is not.

Weird to see a western theologian, a scholastic at that, taking a apothatic approach to God

Christian theology is both aphotatic and cataphatic. To say that only one of them could be applied is heresy.

>Aquinas destroys Muslims in His writtings

>you are bad because you don't believe in the heretical parts of aristotelian philosophy like we do

>proceeds to call him names.

Wow wtf Catholicism must be false.

Where can I get my AK47 Imam?
