Robert Grosseteste on Soteriology

Here’s one of the most beautiful accounts I’ve come across of how the Incarnation confers benefits that make it more than a remedy for sin, from Robert Grosseteste (ca 1168-1253). I know him for his work on scientific themes; here he is showing his skill in doctrinal theology. pic.twitter.com/Y6xrPZHaft

Limits According to... Latin Traditionalists?

I just finished reading this book; it's an interesting study on the limits of the papacy. Well worth a read. pic.twitter.com/OHCgoWHIyF

Substantial Unities

If a Dominican defends transubstantiation to the point of re-affirming that bread is one substance (even though it isn't), is he being a good follower of Thomas, a good Tridentine Latin, or both?

Rhetorical question.

The Human Dignity Canard

Aristotelian-Thomism in the Modern World by S. Adam Seagrave

We may, nevertheless, recognize a grain of truth in the moderns’ appreciation of the moral status of the individual human being. That appreciation coheres well with Christian moral theology but not with pre-modern moral and political philosophy. The moderns’ mistaken rejection of the unchanging objective contexts within which the individual exists led, in the thought of a select few, to a more profound understanding of human dignity than is available in any of the pre-moderns—including Aristotle and St. Thomas Aquinas. Locke’s nuanced and complex understanding of natural rights, in particular, provides an important philosophical elaboration on the Biblical account of humankind’s creation “in the image and likeness” of God. In tomorrow's article, I will examine this concept in greater depth.

Do we need a concept of dignity in order to have a full account of human flourishing and man's ultimate end? Or to explain the basis of charity or justice? I don't think so.

Joseph G. Trabbic, Is the Summa Structurally Flawed?

One may read criticisms of the Summa that it is too rationalistic in its theology; I recall reading this objection from Orthodox apologists as well. The Summa presupposes the Creed; could there be a scientific exposition of the Trinity without a exposition of the unity of God?
