During the first half of the twentieth century, philosophy of religion was widely viewed as dead, not even a domain of serious questions but only of 'pseudo-questions.' Surprisingly, not only did the supposed corpse rise from the dead, but religion once again became one of the most active fields of philosophical investigation. The time could not be more fitting for a reinvestigation of Treatise on the One God, which opens the massive Summa theologiae. In this unparalleled exploration of the Treatise's penetrating arguments J. Budziszewski explores and illuminates the text with a luminous line-by-line commentary. Supplemented with thematic discussions, this book discusses not only the Treatise itself, but also its immediate relevance to contemporary thought and issues of the modern world. This work fittingly closes the author's series of commentaries on the Summa Theologiae.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eCommentator's Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Question 1, Article 1: Is it reasonable to think that the reach of our reasoning needs to be extended by divine Revelation?\u003cbr\u003e Question 2, Article 3: Does God exist – is He real?\u003cbr\u003e Question 3, Article 7: Is God completely simple, rather than in some way composite?\u003cbr\u003e Question 4, Article 1: Is God “perfect” or complete?\u003cbr\u003e Question 6, Article 2: Is God the summit or apex of good?\u003cbr\u003e Question 49, Article 2: Granted that God is the supreme good, is He also the cause of evil?\u003cbr\u003e Question 7, Article 1: Is God infinite?\u003cbr\u003e Question 8, Article 1: Is God in all things?\u003cbr\u003e Question 9, Article 1: Is God exempt from every sort of change?\u003cbr\u003e Question 10, Article 2: Is God eternal?\u003cbr\u003e Question 11, Article 3: Is God a single Being?
