"The product of logic is scholasticism...

No. The product of logic is truth.

"Logic as St. Thomas demonstrated, proves Catholic doctrine."

No. Here's an example. Ezekiel 18 contradicts the Council of Orange's declaration of the doctrine of Original Sin. Contradictions render hypothesis false.

I can't follow you. What are you attempting to demonstrate by citing the Council of Orange, which was convened nearly 800 years before the birth of St. Thomas Aquinas to prove Aquinas wrong. The Council of Orange addressed the necessity of Grace and rejected double predestination. Only a Calvinist interpretation of Ezekiel, rejected by both mainstream Protestantism and Catholicism, can come to the conclusion that the Council of Orange contradicts Ezekiel.

Peace be with you
