rkwright Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Thats a very narrow list? I realize other... but still? I like St. Anselm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I like St. Anselm too. He had a legal mind. I like St. Catherine's approach of pure humility first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeresaBenedicta Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I'm surprised St. Augustine wasn't up there as a choice. Personally, I haven't studied enough to really ascribe to a certain school of theology, nor do I think that there is necessarily as large of a difference between them as many people think. At the moment, if I were forced to choose, I'd probably go with St. Augustine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resurrexi Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 I would have included St. Augustine, but I wanted stick with mediaeval theologians. And I would have included St. Anselm, but I forgot. I was thinking about including Palamas, but then I decided not to since his views are at odds with the teachings of the Church.

Although, I would almost argue that St. Augustine is perhaps the very beginning of the medieval theologians. But, that's certainly personal opinion on my part.

Apotheoun Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I most closely follow the theology of the Cappadocian Fathers, St. Maximos the Confessor, St. John Damascene, and St. Gregory Palamas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
