Summa Theologica by Thomas Aquinas.
Thomas Aquinas sums up
the teachings of Roman Catholic theology for our time.
Aquinas believed that the knowledge which comes from reason and experience will agree
with what is known through faith and revelation, because both reason and faith come from
God. His summary of Christian theology is grounded upon the revelations of the Bible, but
his systematic explanations also draw on the logic and philosophy of the ancients,
especially Aristotle.
