Thomas Aquinas was an influential theological, philosopher and jurist in the tradition of scholastism.
He was the foremost proponent of natural theology and the father of Thomism of which he argued that reason is found in God. He reached this theory after noticing he could not find all the answers by the scientific studies and turned into faith.
Thomas embraced several ideas of Aristoteles to whom he called "The Philosopher" and attemped to synthesize those ideas with the principles of Christianity.
Aquinas is consider one of the greatest theological and philosopher of the catholic church.
He viewed theology as a science, faith and reason are the primary tools to process the data sources revealed by the self-revelation of God to individuals and group of people throughout the history. In order to obtain true knowledge from God he thought that there should be a confluence of faith and reason. That was what he did by blending greek philosophy like the Aristoteles´s works with the christian doctrine.
According with Thomas God is the nature so to study it is to study God and the ultimate goal of theology is use the reason to understand the truth about God and experience salvation through that.
Sanit Thomas Aquinas was cannonized aproximately 50 years after his death on january 18th of 1325 as a response of some miracles and prophecies that had taken place. On 1880 he was named patron saint of the universities and the catholic study centers.
