Did you read the OP?

I trust, given your screen name, that you would know that “The OP” refers to St. Thomas Aquinas. I have not read all that he has written, but have read much, albeit the majority in translation.

I would be inclined to trust whatever from St. Thomas is relevant to the subject if applied by a reputable theologian with the letters O.P., O.Carm., or C.O. after his name, though in the end the argument itself must be given more weight. Still, a level of trust is necessary before investing time.

An article that relies heavily on someone with an S.J. after the name, which relies heavily on a person referred to as the B*****d Bellarmine, S.J. does not seem worth too much time in my books.

It is time to recognize the wisdom of Dominus ac Redemptor and elevate Clement XIV to the glories of the altar.
