“Trust the science” rhetoric is nothing new
Abraham Kuyper would’ve thrown-up in his mouth if he had to watch the folly that was Pfizer’s commercial that aired during the Super Bowl. Pfizer’s “Trust the science” rhetoric is nothing new.

And with the cry ‘Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!’”

His output for De Heraut usually amounted to three or four different articles and was also accomplished during the week...

The release of Natural Theology by Geerhardus Vos is incredibly timely. Recently the debates around “natural theology” and “Thomism” have begun to heat up again.

Is Thomas Aquinas a reliable or unhelpful guide in these questions?
