The greatest troubles of the civilized world have come from a plethora of knowldege applied without heavenly-guided understanding that agrees with the Will of God.

Hayek on the bright side.. If Aquinas is right in the teleological determination of physical nature, we wouldn't be too far off to say that rational thought is not independent and has a direction that we cannot attribute to ourselves.
