Friday Ancient and Medieval Philosophy

For this evening's class we covered a few philosophers on the syllabus for last week that we did not get to last Friday. Starting with Robert Grosseteste who I especially find fascinating. The quiz question I like asking at this point is how amazing is his speculation regarding creation in comparison to the Big Bang Theory? But then we did begin Aquinas who can easily be thought of as the climactic philosopher of the course as he brings everything together and in many ways is still the reigning dogmatist of today. How do you think he achieves that for us?
