    Are you familiar with Thomas Aquinas? If so, who was He?

    First I am in no mood, or state of mind to teach philosophy in this place, as so small to do so in any place.. especially about subject like Thomas Aquinas.
    but a brief thing he was a saint, a holy! man, a Genius. . He was Aristotelian to the core. to the last coma. Also a socialist in 13th century. I have written an essay about this in his (Thomas Aquinas) course. So it is kind of magic you from all philosopher asked about him.

    From the magic point: Once I was receiving some paper regarding the phi-final exam on middle-age philosophy, while reading them, his name, Thomas Aquinas, few times appeared in a brith green. I thought maybe I were mistaking or were tiered, seeing thing, but no not any of that. I touched them, they did not disappear they were real. Like he was giving green light or something, like somehow magically his name only from so many others, going through the printer machine, came out a few times more than regular bold and deep bright green.

    Fair enough. Thank you Ddavidd.

    If you haven’t already (which you probably might have), look into Dante and the divine comedy. That’s where I first read about Thomas Aquinas. I was hoping to remember some info that keeps repeating in my mind but it’s not complete. I just have vague memories.

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

    I don't remember what was exactly what was the occasion in which Thomas Aquinas. appeared in the Divine-Comedy. I remember the professor also mentioned it. and I asked the same question: " could you please explain?"

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too.to you too.
