Alas, I was tagged for this meme by Custos Fidei...
1. If you were invited to a Halloween/All Saints Day Costume Party, which saint would you dress up as and why? (The Blessed Virgin Mary,the Mother of God, is not an option.)
St. Thomas Aquinas, if only for the Dominican habit alone! being married will make it a little awkward... but, I don't think the wife'll mind too much!2. Which saint or other person would accompany you to the party?
Meister Eckhart, St. Augustine of Hippo, Martin Luther, and a beer or two. There's your party right there.3. What famous quote would help others identify you?
Sciences are differentiated according to the various means through which knowledge is obtained. For the astronomer and the physicist both may prove the same conclusion: that the earth, for instance, is round: the astronomer by means of mathematics (i.e. abstracting from matter), but the physicist by means of matter itself. Hence there is no reason why those things which may be learned from philosophical science, so far as they can be known by natural reason, may not also be taught us by another science so far as they fall within revelation. Hence theology included in sacred doctrine differs in kind from that theology which is part of philosophy.4. Describe your costume.
They'll never forget who I am.
the Dominican habit... or some likeness... that's all I need.5. Which movie or film best depicts the life of this saint?
I don't believe there is a movie or film... hmm...6. What is your favorite book written about this saint or that he or she has written?
The Summa Theologica...
