Do you mean Saint Thomas Aquinas? A medieval Catholic Priest, philosopher, concocter of theories. In 1225 they did not know that bacteria caused disease, likely thought that it was "evil spirits", earth was thought flat, and like in third world countries, did not wipe their a$$es on paper. So we are to take the theories of the "dumb ox" as he was called by some of his peers, a priest who was likely prejudicially influenced by his commitment to the catholic church, as proof of the existence of a God?
