St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) was without question the greatest
theologian in the history of the Catholic Church, and the "Summa
Theologica" (1271-1274) was his masterpiece and one of the most
influential theological books ever written. The goal herein is to
make the thought and reasoning of this marvelous compendium of the
Angelic Doctor more accessible and able to be referenced quickly.
My overwhelming emphasis in collecting excerpts will be on theology
itself; with far less on the topics of spirituality, ethics, and
other areas. Sometimes even those of us who love Aquinas, have
neither the time nor desire to read through the reasoning chain
that he uses in the 3,500-page "Summa" to come to his conclusions.
St. Thomas' style in the Summa is a wonderful method and fabulous
teaching device, but perhaps there are a lot of people like me who
would also like to see concise, easily obtainable "answers" from
Aquinas. I hope you, the reader, will benefit from my true labor of
love.
