In "The Triumph of St. Thomas Aquinas," a powerful depiction raises questions about the portrayal of philosophical conflicts, such as Aquinas against Ibn Rushd, reflecting historical tensions.
Aquinas integrates faith and reason, making his work relatable and appealing even centuries later, but has also become a tool for divisiveness among his followers.
The narrative of Aquinas dining with King Louis IX, and his vigorous rebuttal against the Manichees, illustrates how his passionate defense of doctrine sometimes overshadows his deeper philosophical contributions.
Despite the potential for Aquinas's ideas to unite, his interpretation often becomes a weapon for theological battles, illustrating the complex legacy of his intellectual influence.
