Hello! I would first like to thank you for making these videos. They are compact yet do not simplify the concepts at hand. It is an incredible feat for which I ought to congratulate you all. Second, I’m looking to read more Aquinas (all I’ve read so far are the Five Ways and the Treatise on Law). Yet with authors of such monumental intelligence, such as Aquinas, I hazard to buy just any translation of his works as I do not want to read a translation which butchers his ideas. Whose translations of Aquinas would you recommend so that I do not lose what Aquinas himself said? Thank you once more!

The standard English translation that we use is that done by the "English Dominican Fathers." t is also the English translation used in the English-Latin edition of Aquinas's works published by the St. Paul Center. If you sign up for the Aquinas 101 course email (go to Aquinas101.com), you will receive a coupon for 50% off the Latin-English works of Aquinas, including the Summa Theologiae, as published by the St. Paul Center. It's a great deal! And that's the edition of the Summa that I use for my own work.

I think it is a mistake to confine sobriety to a rigid explanation that only views it as a matter of self-control in the matter of drinking alcohol beverages. Most people who hear the term sobriety only see it as a matter of being temperate concerning the amount of alcohol they consume. I don't drink so temperance means more to me than balance in that one area. There can be a sobriety of mind, a being diligent and on guard against sin, the flesh, the world and the devil. Having a presence of mind that keeps one alert to their behavior. I have tried to use the following verse as a standard of my life, Micah 6: 8 (RSV Catholic Ed.)"He has showed you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness,[a] and to walk humbly with your God?" (a) "steadfast love", and some translate the Hebrew hessed, as "mercy." That verse seems for me to provide a balance for developing good character.

Drunkenness as used in Christianity applies more broadly than just alcoholism. It applies to any behavior that is capable of clouding one's sense of right judgment.

It would be nice for you to define each virtue

The account of justice is a straight lift from the Stoics, Cicero on Duties.. (no surprise there), however the "Whole" is at once the Cosmopolis and also Cosmos, which is to say Zeus..

@@ProfessorShnacktime I prefer to call them virtuous pagans (since they practiced a life of virtue). In this thinking, I am influenced by Dante’s depiction of the Virtuous Pagans in Limbo (note I do not actually believe in Limbo). He emphasized that the virtuous pagans were placed in Limbo because they practiced the cardinal virtues which even the pagans could know by human reason alone. The reason he didn’t place them in Heaven was because he believed that the theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity were also necessary but that since these virtues are infused upon Baptism, the pagans did not have them. The main thing I take from this is that the practice of the cardinal virtues is sufficient for a well-ordered, harmonious society though to achieve moral perfection, that is to unite oneself with the Ultimate Good, one does need the theological virtues. Cheers!

'Virtue and Pride cannot each other greet; As Youth and Age themselves can never meet; When this one grows the other shrinks, and when The Night is long the Day is not complete." "The one religion is that thou be just To all --- and what religion owneth he That scorns due right? Man cannot lead his soul To virtue, though he lead a host in arms." Al-Ma'arri Poet and Philosopher 973-1057 CE

Huh?

Faith Hope and Charity are THEO logical virtues because it requires love of THE FATHER, Creator -- source of Faith. HOPE is found in God's ONLY Divine Son, who is our redeemer and source of divine living, and Charity aka LOVE comes from the Holy Spirit who is counselor of the mind and guide of steps of loving GOD and neighbor.

Go raibh maith agat.

Hi. Good as far as it goes, but where is the virtue of HONESTY in your list? JUSTICE depends entirely on HONESTY, "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help us God". God's great day of judgement cannot happen without HONESTY as the measure of genuineness of all other virtues. Even LOVE is of no effect if it isn't first HONEST love. I'd suggest your source material is incomplete. Cheers, P.R.

Morality has always been a problem for religion. Whilst individual theists can be moral, they have no way to explain why any act is right or wrong through faith.

Sam Harris needs to read saint thomas Aquinas. I laugh at the new atheist. They seem to be lacking in real understanding when it comes to theology and philosophy.

Seems meaningless unless you provide specific references to the Summa or other TJ works....
