Cool quiz. 1. Aquinas (100%) 2. St. Augustine (76%) 3. Aristotle (73%) Aristotle has been my hero up to now. Gotta read up on these other 2 dudes. [/ QUOTE ] I'm sure you'll like them. |

100% Aquinas - tell me something I didn't know - so I guess the quiz is accurate.

[ QUOTE ] Can anyone explain this philosophy in a manner that a fifth grader can understand [/ QUOTE ]God doesn't exist - all is permitted. [/ QUOTE ] "God doesn't exist" is there, "all is permitted" is there too in some sense, but saying that this is existentialism, is like saying 2=5 instead of 2+3=5. |

Well maybe there's no sense in explaining existentialism to a 5th grader, so there's no such possible version. But I replied because I thought that your explanation was something like saying: "god exists. all is forbidden" to someone asking what is christianity, which is funny, but doesn't really answer even a 3 years old kid's question. |
