Saint Thomas Aquinas’s impact on Catholic philosophy
Saint Thomas not only “stands as a vehicle and modifier of Aristotelianism” (Wikipedia) but also as the great theologian who organized the Catholic philosophy. Although some parts of his works remain aching, the fact that he has established the identity of Catholicism cannot be denied.
Saint Thomas and propaganda
Thomas Aquinas showed his genius in establishing the Aristotelian Catholic doctrine. Nevertheless, his justification of the Catholic is more or less close to propaganda; he ignored some arguments of Neo-Platonism and Aristotle that stand against Catholicism.
Plotinus, a founder of Neo-Platonism, explained Holy Trinity as being constituted of the One, the Spirit (Nous), and the Soul and made it clear that these three are not equal. (Russell 288) Nevertheless, Thomas Aquinas ignored the claim since Catholic doctrine says the Trinity is equally same.
Not only Neo-Platonism but also Aristotle was denied by Thomas Aquinas elements. Aristotle suggested that God is an Artificer rather than a Creator. Although the two concepts are often used in the similar context, Creator has more subjective and independent connotation than Artificer.

Intro to the Avant Garde
Translation by Goh Seong-Lok…
아방가르드개론 제1장- 사이
Introduction to Avant-garde Chapter 1 – Sai
사람들은 도대체 내 말을 믿지 않아
People never believe me
돈 없어도 시골에서 팔자가 늘어진 걸
I have no money, but I’m relieved in countryside
잘 먹고 잘 놀고 잘 쉬고 전기세 천 육백 원
I eat well, play and all I have to pay is 1,600 won
텔레비전 핸드폰 세탁기 냉장고 없어도 좋아
There’s no need for TV, cellular phone, laundry machine, or refrigerator
농사로 돈을 벌려고 하면 머리가 아파
You’ll get sick once you try to earn money from farming
그냥 줄이고, 덜 쓰고, 가난해도 괜찮은 걸
You just spend less and It would be okay to be poor
아이가 태어나도 학교에는 안 보낼 거야
If my baby is born, I’ll never make him go to school
뭐 나랑 같이 밭일 하고, 밴드하고 산책하고
Well, he’ll just work, play, and walk around with me.
책이나 읽겠지 우우우
Maybe he’ll read some books….Ooh Ooh Ooh . . . .
This singer is saying–through his song and his life–that we can be happy without money. Maybe what makes us happy is not just money, but rather a relieved, satisfying (satisfied) mind. And a simple life would be a good way for having a relieved mind. I envy the singer. Listen to the song
