Summa Theologica #catechesis/summa
Up: Catechesis
Land here when the user asks: what Aquinas or St Thomas thought; a whether question — whether
God exists, whether God has passions or emotions, whether the soul is immortal, whether war can be
just; for a reasoned argument rather than a citation; about the five ways, the existence and nature
of God, the Trinity, creation, angels, the human soul, happiness, the passions, habits, virtue and
vice, sin, law, grace, the incarnation, or the sacraments; for scholastic or Thomistic reasoning.
623 notes across 7 parts, one per Question, in the classic form: Objection → On the contrary →
I answer that → Reply. Articles carry ^articleN anchors, so cite the article, not the question.
Aquinas cites the Bible 8,904 times and the Encyclopedia 224,522 times, so a Summa article is
usually one click from both the verse it rests on and the background on its terms.
