The Fifth Way of Thomas Aquinas

Think for Christ di Dr. Anthony Alberino and Dr. Andrew Payne

Note sull'episodio

In Part 17 of this Introduction to Apologetics series we look at the "Fifth Way" given by Thomas Aquinas in his Summa Theologica for demonstrating God's existence. Although the Fifth Way is frequently mistaken as an empirical argument for "Intelligent Design," Aquinas is actually pointing to much deeper metaphysical realities that can only, in principle, be explained by appeal to a supernatural intelligence.
