I’ve never heard of him but now my interest is peaked
He wrote 5 proofs for the existence of God, Aquinas, Aristotle's Revenge, Locke, By Man Shall His Blood Be Shed, etc. He is a professor, and was priorly an atheist. He decided to read more Aquinas to teach it better and then slowly realized he was correct, and converted to Catholicism.
I think i’ve heard of him before
Only slightly though
You'll typically hear most Thomists now reference him when they want clarification
Definitely add him to my reading list
Along with Aquinas
It may be useful to read *Aquinas* by Feser before reading Aquinas himself, he explains the philosophy Aquinas was operating on which is very important
Understandable
That’ll help
Proverbs 21:2
@Deleted User Always remember this.
So should everyone
I believe my ultimate motive in life is to spread the Judgement and Truth of the lord to this earth as much as i can
Even if i only spread it to one person my goal will be fulfilled
@Eoppa This is going to be a very redundant and useless question, i know. But i am simply just curious about it. From the stance of the Church is receiving head before marriage immoral?
fuck catholics
@Deleted User yes
that requires lust
@Deleted User Yes
@Master Yeet nationalism should be built out of love, not hate. The bible clearly recognizes the differences in people and nations.
@Master Yeet Nations exist to make the world more functional, the division of different groups simply exists for happier, and more functional lives for people
@Eoppa What are some good chants you know?
Preferably in greek but english is fine as well
@Eoppa Who cares about the filioque clause
It's clearly written in the book of Matthew that there are essences and energies within God
The filioque was added to correct false doctrine in the western church. The eastern church had other heresies it had to contend with
@Shalopy Do you even know what the filioque clause was aboug
It had nothing to do with "correcting false doctrine" it was about whether or not the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son or not.
The Orthodox argument is that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father alone as an energy of the Father but not an essence and an energy
"Nicea declared the Son to be “light from light, true God from true God, of one essence (Greek homoousios) with the Father”. Constantinople declared the Spirit to be “the Lord, the Giver of life, who proceeds from the Father”. That is, the Spirit was not created by the Father as the angels were created, but rather proceeded from the Father’s very being so that He was as divine as the Father was."
That's how the creed originally read.
But Catholics like you have your heads so far up your own asses that you feel the need to change it for no reason whatsoever, tampering with the original creed and removing it's validity as an unchanged, timeless tradition.
