Title: "Double truth"
Post by: Kephapaulos on August 24, 2017, 08:50:45 PM
Is there such thing as the "double truth"? Charles Coulombe mentions it here: https://youtu.be/Fp9QQUg42ms

That something can be true for faith and false for philosophy or vice versa is what the Muslims, following Avveroes, believe; it's also what the Modernists believe; cf. Pascendi (http://w2.vatican.va/content/pius-x/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-x_enc_19070908_pascendi-dominici-gregis.html) ยงยง16-17.
See "Reason & Fauth: Double-Truths? (http://"https://sententiaedeo.blogspot.com/2009/10/reason-faith-double-truths.html?m=1")" and fn. 115 here (http://"https://books.google.com/books?id=zAsjkHJ8aP8C&pg=305").

I see. So it was not a fair charge against Thomism then. It seems to also be unfounded that St. Bonaventure called St. Thomas Aquinas " the father of all heresies," for I found no such quote in any source, unless it was just gest or joke of some sort on the part St. Bonaventure since he and St. Thomas were good friends.
