Discussion Post: Aquinas & God's Nature
Thinkers in the Medieval Period were preoccupied with problems surrounding the existence of God. Thomas Aquinas is justly famous for enumerating five proofs for God's existence. But he also claimed that because of those proofs, there are things we can rightly know about the nature of God. From those proofs he says we can understand two things about God's existence. And from those two things, we can flesh out even more knowledge about Him.
In this discussion carefully give a detailed explanation those two initial bits of knowledge. And then explain them further as Aquinas does. Aquinas claims we can retain the mystery surrounding God's nature and yet have a glimpse of what he actually is. Do you believe Aquinas argument permits us to see God in this way? Is Aquinas' argument sound?
