Philosophy Friday: Teach Us the 1st Proof of God by Thomas Aquinas

Pat Flynn is joined again by Fr. Gregory Pine to discuss natural theology and St. Thomas Aquinas, specifically his famous philosophical proofs for the existence of God, with a special emphasis on the argument from motion. Do these proofs hold up, and what exactly do they hope to convey? All this and more on today's Philosophy Friday!
