Thomas Aquinas on Philosophy - Dictionary of Arguments

Höffe I 145
Philosophy/Religion/Thomas Aquinas/Höffe: Thomas rejects any mixing and blending [of philosophy and religion]. With regard to the genuine philosophical questions he argues with the purely natural reason. In this respect his thinking, although anchored in a Christian horizon, is secular.
>Religion
, >Religous belief, >Theology.
God/Thomas Aquinas: The subject of God often appears only as a completion of the initially merely rational thinking, i.e. not prematurely, but as a culmination.
>Rationality.
Even in this form it remains an immanent philosophical object, for God's existence is not considered self-evident but requires reflection. >Proof of God.
