Glad you brought that up. I am sure that nitwit had access to Plato, and it would not surprise me if Aquinas got poisoned by Plato's idea of "essence" too. If you have read the opening of Dawkin's "The Greatest Show On Earth" Dawkins blames Plato for that idea infecting human logic. It wasn't everything Plato wrote Dawkins objected to, just that one idea of "essence of". Plato long before Aquinas also stupidly thought you could simply "reason" your way to that perfect thing or perfect idea.


Neither Aquinas or Plato had the benefit of modern scientific method to act as a quality control to their ideas.

Aquinas.  Wasn't.  A.  Scientist.  Yet you persist in faulting him for not knowing or talking about science.  Do you also refuse to pay your auto mechanic because he didn't weed your garden?  Dimwit.


Boru

Of course I fault him, but I fault all of antiquity worldwide because our species back then DID NOT have modern science. Yea he said a lot of shit people liked and found popular, but he was still ignorant.
