Thomas Aquinas and Francisco Suarez on the Problem of Concurrence

| Resumo: | Thomas and Suarez understand God's creation and conservation in a similar way: as God's continually giving being to all creatures. The two philosophers also try to explain the way in which creaturely, secondary causality is guaranteed, but they do so in radically different ways.

I try to show how different concurrentism is from Thomas's doctrine of secondary causality and to offer some criticism of the former by the latter. |
