Sed autem si non pregandum, orare oportet. Coniunctio fidei et rationis est tamquam matrimonium inter mundum et caelum. Homo sine his vivere nequit, scilicet immortaliter. Sane dicitur, "vivat fides, vivat ratio, ad Deum gloriam et hominis salutem.
Intentio Huius Auctoris.
Oportet enim hominem quaerere potentiae intellectualis perfectionem, quia haec perfectio non est aliud quam vivere in propria natura. Lingua Latina multipliciter ad intellectum colendum usi potest, et scientiae philosphiae et theologiae magis in hac vita convenientes, vero non necessariae, sunt ad in novissimam introiendum. Bis bonus si duos habemus. Ad hoc autem et ad fidem firmandam principaliter in sito nostro textos, litterae, quaestiones, et alia, Sancti Thomae vel de operibus eius exponebitur.
The
perfection of man's intellectual powers is no other
than living according to his proper nature. Latin and
the philosophical and theological sciences are most
useful towards cultivating man's intellectual capacity.
However convenient and useful, they are not not necessary,
as such, for salvation. But if these are present as
well two goods subsist together, certainly not in contradiction.
In order to put this point across and in order to affirm
the Faith, texts, notes, questions, et alia dealing
with St. Thomas Aquinas will be posted on this site.
