Godfather philosophy

 

The philosophy of the patriarch began around the 2nd century and ended around the 6th century. At the beginning of the birth of Christianity, a group of more or less philosophical followers borrowed Greek philosophy, especially the philosophy of Neo-Platonism and Stoicism, to demonstrate and defend the faith of Christianity theoretically. It formed the first historical form of Christian philosophy, namely "Godfather Philosophy". The greatest representative of the philosophy of the Godfather is Augustine.

 

Scholasticism

 

Medieval scholasticism was a Christian philosophy developed in the court schools of Charlemagne's empire, as well as in the abbeys and dioceses of Christianity. These schools were centers for the study of theology and philosophy. Their teachers and scholars were called Scholastics, and their philosophy was called Scholasticism. While using Greek philosophy to serve theology, Scholasticism inherited its problems, and thus formed two opposing philosophical schools, namely, Realism and Nominalism, around the problem of the relationship between the common and the different. Realism holds that the universal universal is the real reality, and the specific or individual things are only phenomena. Nominalism holds that the individual things are the real existence, and the universal is merely a concept or a phrase, without the meaning of actual existence. Although scholasticism was limited by Christian theology, their debate on the relationship between common and different promoted the depth of philosophical thought to a certain extent.

 

Ontological proof of the existence of God

 

The Scholastic Anselm is famous for his ontological proof of the existence of God. It seemed to him that the incomparable greatness could not exist in thought alone, but that if it existed only in thought, it could be imagined to exist in fact, and that it would be still greater; Or it may be imagined that a great being, which exists in thought as well as in reality, is greater than it. All of these are contradictory to the definition of "unparalleled greatness. "So there can be no doubt that the incomparable and great thing, namely God, exists in thought as well as in reality. This ontological proof of existence inferred from concepts was strongly criticized by Kant.
