On Skepticism, The Two Cities, and Our Primary Good, Saint Augustine, On
the Trinity, City of God, and Of the Morals of the Catholic Church
Saint Augustine is a Christian Neo-Platonist, North African Bishop, and
Doctor of the Roman Catholic Church. I am a proud Catholic and I am favor in what
Saint Augustine referring on the seeking truth and the ultimate reality and found the
Christianity. The Works: Trinity, and City of God, the Confession on the Christian
Doctrine. The attitude of a Catholic devotion to God is the way I glory Him. To think is
to think the assent, deliberative intellectual act in general is to be approve by
recognizing it many times. Believe in order that you may understand. Unless you shall
believe, you shall not understand, in order to you to understand you must believe in
Him is up to you if you dont believe you will never understand what did Saint Augustine
says and believe. Augustinian Neo-Platonism- Augustine accepted Planos nation of a
fundamental divide between the sensible world and the world of Spiritual world. The
faith to God implies the conduction of the spiritual world of what did Saint Augustine
Christian to be like.
The Exemplary Ideas is about Platos theory of forms. They are the eternal truth
in which the existence of sensible objects that are based on it. The Theory of
illumination speaks of every human desire of thinking must be seek from Gods light in
order to witness the eternal truth. The Principle of Participation in the existence of GodGod is the truth, and the source of all truths. God is the natural truth of everything.
Nothing is more than perfect with Him, because God is the truth among them.
Evil is a substance, its your choice of being evil. God allow evil to exist because its
our choice of being on e of them being a evil is a substance. Man must perform by their
own ways because the image of God, Happiness is to be attained by knowing God.

The Ontological Argument, Saint Anselm, Proslogion

God is that than which nothing greater can be thought; in other words, he is a
being so great among the full metaphysical oomph, that no one is greater than God Our
Father. Ontological Argument is the study of nature being. A Priori Justification
reasoning independent of experience, example The water is hot?, All humans have
spines, and all animals with spines are mammals, Therefore all humans are
mammals. Two different of Existence: Existence Understanding Alone example of
Cyclops, Gandalf, Wizard. And Existence of Reality undiscovered like animals, plants,
humans and the reality.
God is something than which nothing greater can be conceived. According to
Saint Anselm that God exist in understanding. For it is greater to exist in reality that to
exists merely in the understanding. In my own opinion God exists because I believe that
all this things happen is because of Him and I also believe in the Creation that what God
done as a Catholic God is the one who created the universe not the Theory of Big Bang
Theory because for me is just a study, but not what the bible says that the universe
created by God. So that than which nothing greater can be thought exist in reality. That
understanding all things such as questioning that do you ever see a unicorn? That is one
of understanding how that such thing exists.
For me my devotion to God will not change to matter what happen, because He is
the answer to all my prayers I honor him and glory Him every time. All my prayers and
my faith with him will not change. God exist in many ways thru understanding or
experience by others. All we need is the characterization of god as that than which
nothing greater can be thought.
