U radu se analiziraju dokazi, koje u vezi s Božjim postojanjem iznosi sveti Toma Akvinski, a koji su poznati pod nazivom Pet putova (Quinque viae). U tom smislu navode se Tomina razmišljanja iznesena u Sumi teologije i u Sumi protiv pogana 1. Vezano uz osnovnu temu razmatra se i pitanje vremenskog početka materijalnog svijeta s osvrtom na stvaranje ex nihilo i creatio continua. Na kraju se u zaključku naglašava da Toma ne poistovjećuje kršćanskog Boga s bogovima, koji se javljaju u povijesti religija, odnosno da se dokazi odnose samo na spoznaju Božjeg postojanja, a ne u u smislu njegove biti kako ju tumači katolička teologija. The paper analysis the proofs presented by St. Thomas Aquinas regarding the existence of God, which is known as the five ways (quinque viae). In this sense, Thomas's thoughts expressed in the Summa of Theology and the Summa of Theology Against the Gentiles are cited. Related to the basic theme, the question of the temporal beginning of the material world is also considered, with reference to creation ex nihilo and creatio continua. At the end, in the conclusion it is emphasized that Thomas does not identify the Christian God with the gods that appear in the history of religions, that is, that the evidence refers only to the knowledge of God's existence, and not in the sense of his essence as interpreted by Catholic theology. |
