St, Thomas Aquinas' Five Ways ♪

"The truth of the Christian faith... surpasses the capacity of reason, nevertheless that truth that the human reason is naturally endowed to know can not be opposed to the truth of the Christian faith.”
-Aquinas

First Way: The Argument from Motion
- I agree on this becuas inorder to something to move we need a mover to move the objects. But how about something that is alive? (Human)
Second Way: Causation of Existence
- No object creates it self or unless your like super magical person just like God who can create everything. However, there is question that who made GOD? No one made god because according to BIBLE God is just if self and he is itself. He is the first mover to make all the creations. We can’t question or be curious about him because according to Holy Bible God is just itself alone somewhere over the rainbow somewhere holy~
Third Way: Contingent and Necessary Object
- . . . nothing~
Fourth Way: The Argument from Degrees and Perfection
Fifth Way: The Argument from Intelligent Design
- Everyone would be curious about who made the world?

I think everything is all makes sense and I believe everything but the more I feel comfortable to argue about is the Fourth one the Argument from Degrees and Perfection.
To start off this, we are living in a world of judging something between two things such as human, animals, objects and ect.
For Example:
If we are see someone who is Hot or Sexy we knocked out at that point to see that person which is God is giving us the feeling to feel that thing is hot or sexy.
But everyone has all different taste of seeing or taste.
If God judge people who are hot or sexy that would hurt people and it wouldn’t be fair for those of people who are not HOT! (by the this wouldn’t be happen)

Thomas: Everything is equal and Same Same (goodness, beauty, knowledge)
This is wrong wrong wrong because we are not the same or have same taste.
We are all look different, see differently Feel different that’s why we are not tire of seeing people everyday~ He is just comparing two things which one is the best out of two.
I think DETERMINES who's beautiful or not makes you the purpose of pleasing god with faith because you want to be better than way you are and asking for help to God ^^
Comparing two things or judging is not acceptable because even though we are all different we all have something special.
To end this, Aquinas is "begging the question" by stating his argument already assuming that it had been proved.

Ps: I don’t know what I was writing … >0<
I try my best to explain but I guess it ended like this……..
Well
