Question asked by: netjet

Asked on: 29 May 2008

For Aquinas God is outside of space and time, space and time were made with the universe rather than the universe being made in space and time.

Aquinas adopted many of the ancient Greek ideas and those from the Socratic and Platonic traditions, and to an extent Aristotelian, and applied them to the Christian theology.
