OPTION 3: Explain Aquinas’ theory of knowledge acquisition (i.e., epistemology) and the extent to
which you agree or disagree with it. Answer in a brief essay of one or two paragraphs.
Option 3: Explain Aquinas’ theory of knowledge acquisition (i.e., epistemology) and the extent to which
you agree or disagree with it. Answer in a brief essay of one or two paragraphs.
According to Smith (2020), Aquinas built his epistemology on a solid foundation of metaphysical
support by integrating Aristotle and Christian theology (p. 20). Smith (2020) states that epistemology
is the branch of philosophy that studies the nature, sources, and validity of knowledge, and it
addresses the reliability of knowledge and valid meanings of arriving at the truth (p. 20). Aquinas
believed humans could acquire the truth through faith and reason (Smith, 2020, p. 22). Like Aristotle,
Aquinas believed that the human world is moved by an “Unmoved Mover,” but Aquinas identiYed this
mover as God (Smith, 2020, p. 22). Aquinas argued that humans learn about the natural world through
reasoning and the supernatural world through faith (Smith, 2020, p. 22). The term supernatural means
something is “attributed to some force beyond scientiYc understanding or the laws of nature”
(Dictionary.com, n.d.). Based on the information provided, my Christian faith leads me to agree with
Aquinas. My God, who is a supernatural being, is known through faith. You learn through reasoning not
to put your hand on a hot stove.
