Today is the Feast Day of Thomas Aquinas
Happy Feast Day 
Since I’m on a Ladislas Orsy roll, let’s see what he has to day about the importance of Aquinas to the Church:
“Disputations in the spirit of openness and charity always had a place of pride in the intellectual history of the Christian community. St. Thomas of Aquinas was a supreme master of it. He liked to preface his affirmations by contrasting questions. “Such a venerable tradition should not become extinct. After all, the entire body of the faithful has been entrusted with the fullness of the evangelical message. Hence, no one should ever be left out of the process of seeking its fuller understanding.” (p. xii)
