About this Quote

This quote by Thomas Aquinas speaks with the significance of clinical learning in the Catholic faith. He is alerting that if Catholics who are not fluent in clinical understanding present false information as dogma, it will be seen as a joke by non-believers. Aquinas is stressing the requirement for Catholics to be educated in clinical matters in order to make sure that their faith is not viewed as silly or outdated. He is likewise suggesting that clinical understanding must be utilized to support the truth of the Catholic faith, rather than oppose it. This quote works as a pointer that faith and science can coexist, which scientific understanding can be used to strengthen religions.
