Thomas Aquinas was probably one of the greatest philosophers and theologians who ever lived, he was a Dominican, which means that everything he did was for the Church. His greatest work, the Summa Theologia was never finished, St. Thomas was a mystic at as he was working on the Summa, he experienced a vision of God which left him feeling as if everything he had done was so much straw, he never wrote another word. That was in the thirteenth century. To this day, his works are still used to educate priests, they are that good.
