“Part of the problem with Dawkins’s criticisms of Aquinas, then (and of the other New Atheists’ criticisms of certain other religious arguments), is that they fail to understand the difference between a scientific hypothesis and an attempted metaphysical demonstration, and illegitimately judge the latter as if it were the former. Of course, they might respond by claiming that scientific reasoning, and maybe mathematical reasoning too, are the only legitimate kinds, and seek thereby to rule out metaphysical arguments from the get go. But there are two problems with this view (which is known as “scientism” or “positivism”). First, if they want to take this position, they’ll need to defend it and not simply assert it; otherwise they’ll be begging the question against their opponents and indulging in just the sort of dogmatism they claim to oppose. Second, the moment they attempt to defend it, they will have effectively refuted it, for scientism or positivism is itself a metaphysical position that could only be justified using metaphysical arguments.”
Edward Feserser, The Last Superstition: A Refutation of the New Atheism

Dejan Stojanovic
“Thomas Aquinas (1225—1274) states that God is a simple being. Although God is eternal, a material world, Universe, is not eternal. For Aquinas, God’s existence is his essence, the basis of Divine simplicity. For anything else, there is a distinction between existence and essence. Aquinas defined his five arguments for the existence of God in his book Summa Theologica:

1. The First Way: Motion. (The argument from "first mover.")
2. The Second Way: Efficient Cause. (The argument from universal causation.)
3. The Third Way: Possibility and Necessity. (The argument from contingency).
4. The Fourth Way: Gradation. (The argument from degree.)
5. The Fifth Way: Design. (The argument from final cause or ends [Teleological argument].)”
Dejan Stojanovic, ABSOLUTE
