[Serious] Thomism: Then & Now
#91
RE: Thomism: Then & Now
The second video my Martin Kulp is also quite good. If you watched the first one you'll know exactly what to expect.

Here, again, he goes fast and doesn't go into detail about actualizing essence into existence. And since modern people generally don't think in these terms, people not already familiar with the arguments will probably want background. He doesn't explain, for example, why a thing's essence requires a causal force to make it exist, nor does he explain why the first link in the causal series must be a total conjunction of essence and existence. He just states that this is what the argument says. That's why I say these Five Ways aren't self-evident -- each is more like a course syllabus.

It's an excellent summary, though. I think I have a bad tendency to conflate the first three ways in my mind, so its good to be reminded.
