You are always free to prove me wrong and demonstrate your comprehensive knowledge of Thomas Aquinas; although, obviously you are under no obligation to do so. You can just say so but why should anyone believe you. Metis claimed to be a divinity student and expert on Aquinas, yet everyone agrees that his performance was an utter failure.
Intellectual honesty?....hmmm...what does that really mean anyway?
Obviously, you don't know, because you still refuse to acknowledge that Metis' "performance" was an utter failure because we caught him plagiarizing, not because Aquinas' 5 ways are so compelling.
I took an entire class in college about Aquinas from a professor who was borderline obsessed with the guy; got an A and everything, so obviously I understand it pretty well. I still don't think the arguments are at all valid.
