st Thomas Aquinasproofs of gods existance
St. Thomas Aquinas: Proofs of God’s existence.Aquinas says that God’s essence (feeling) is his existence. That there is no Actual need for proof of his existence. Before he actually developed his Proofs Aquinas tried to show that such proofs are not useless, since the Idea of God’s existence is not, a probable idea-“that God exists.” Because Of this fact he states that every man has a “natural knowledge” (that which he is born with.) of God such as : he has some ideas of happiness (since he wants/ desires it.) but he might think that happiness is made up of sexual pleasure or in the possession of wealth. Aquinas is trying to prove that the true happiness can only be found in God (because he truly believed in Gods existence due to the society he was in.). He states that a man who truly believes that there is no truth asserts that it is true that there is no truth, but this does not matter if the man knows primal truth- a source of God.This is St. Thomas’s argument
