Aristotle’s Philosophy, Science, and the Christian Church
[ send me this essay ]
This 10 page report discusses the philosophy of Aristotle (384 -322 BCE) and its impact on Christianity. According to Aristotle, the human soul is made up of rational and non-rational elements. One has the ability to reason about things within itself, and understand mathematics and other theoretical sciences. The other listens to reason “as one would listen to a father.” Certainly, the connection between the thinking of Aristotle and that of Christianity becomes obvious in that one statement. Many other parallels exist between Aristotle’s thinking and the attitudes of the Christian church in terms of science, medicine, and other physical truths of the universe.
