I have found a way to have some fun by using the Summa Theologica. You can take each article, which has a heading (such as article 1 and article 2 etc), and use the heading as a question, and then answer it as you wish, and then drop down to where it says “On the contrary” and then you get your answer. It’s actually pretty fun and very enlightening at the same time. Kind of a game that I have come to enjoy!

Must be my dumb day but where does it say “on the contrary”? I scrolled from top to bottom of the link.

I think you may have not clicked onto the actual articles, the link I just gave is the beginning of his articles, and when you scroll down you will start to see "objection 1,2,3… and then you will notice the “on the contrary.” There are tons and tons of these through the Summa. On the first link I gave you click onto the links to access the articiles.

No I doubt that, I imagine many people who have read this post have not understood what in the world I am talking about, the Summa is not simple stuff. I have been thinking about putting together an easy to use format for a question and answer quiz sort of thing using the Summa the way that I have talked about on this thread, without all the scrolling to find the answers. It would not be hard at all to put together, just time.

Have a joyful Christmas.
