I got hung up on the first sentence;

"Saint Thomas has sometimes been portrayed, especially in the theological anarchy of the postconciliar period, as a hidebound medieval scholastic trapped in a rationalistic methodology, whose works lack a palpable spirituality that resonates in the hearts of modern people."

Thank God for right click, search google for ... because I went to a half a dozen differnt places learning about "postconciliar" f'rinstance .... a word made up especially by Catholics FOR Catholics to describe post Vatican 2 .. and .. "hidebound" .. a very interesting word that draws an interesting picture ...

As well as some of the contributors to Rorate Caeli which have following their names, more designations of Catholicism than America has political parties .... I bet THEIR confabs are fun

I marvel at the wordiness Catholics like to be

Festus thought he was talking to a Catholic, apparently

And yet we use the words of St. Thomas, “My Lord and My God” during Mass. Some say it softly at the elevations of the host and the wine, others say it audibly.
