Haven’t read Aquinas? You might be gay.

@shitcoinity @aidannonx Julian, usually called "the apostate," tried to rebuild the Jewish temple. An earthquake destroyed their first work, and later "balls of fire" destroyed the tools, materials, and burned some of the workers to death. The project was abandoned and some converted.

@BruhFella1488 @philosophymeme0 Descartes is often called the father of modern philosophy; he is certainly not an ancient philosopher. If anything, this is Parmenides and other monists.

[Athanasius Taylor @PaladinCat]

@TDisputations @Rayden_Creed Correct. While the principles of essence and existence are distinct in all created being, in God, His essence is the same as His act of being; "What He is" = "That He is."

@LibertyHangout Catholics must believe the Patristic consensus on faith; this is a doctrine of the faith. Ambiguous or non-binding statements of recent popes cannot overturn this unanimous agreement. If they got this wrong the Fathers are wrong on everything.

[Athanasius Taylor @PaladinCat]

@LibertyHangout The Fathers are unanimous in their judgment about the unique creation of man and woman from man. Check the PBC declaration of 1909 on this. Check your Denzinger, Dz 3514.

[Athanasius Taylor @PaladinCat]

@LibertyHangout Aquinas believed that Adam was formed miraculously from the earth, that Eve was fashioned from Adam’s rib, that light and plants were created before the sun, that Paradise was both a spiritual and physical location, that Noah and his flood were historical.

[Athanasius Taylor @PaladinCat]

@LibertyHangout St. Augustine believed that the world was created instantly less than 6,000 years before his time. See City of God XV.

@trad_men @pontificatormax Yes, it's his own separate show focusing on Fortean phenomena such as ghosts, cryptids, psychic phenomena, etc. CA has problems, but this isn't one of them.

@ianhmg Hey Ian, big fan. My friends and I are curious as to which character here is Sneed or if it’s the cashier inside.
Do you have an answer?

[Athanasius Taylor @PaladinCat]

@protnonsense What's the problem with predestination supposed to be? The Augustinian-Thomistic view seems to be that of St. Paul... And yeah, Aquinas makes a few mistakes where he relies on Aristotle's science, not a big deal

@JosephNollaSJ @Elizabethsaith There is no such thing as a Protestant saint. Please read Unam Sanctam, Cantate Domino, and Mortalium Animos.

[Athanasius Taylor @PaladinCat]

@pippanie St. Athanasius writes that it is fitting that the Word, which made all things in the beginning, should restore all things. Further, the Word is God's communication, so it is fitting that He communicate salvation to the world

@pontificatormax St. Rumwald?

[Athanasius Taylor @PaladinCat]

@RicafortJong @FrDaveNix Sounds like Chiliasm with extra steps

[Athanasius Taylor @PaladinCat]

@tumtonks @AOC Just think about it logically.
