The correct answer to this open question is the following.

In his book “Saint Thomas Aquinas” of 1933, G.K. Chesterton portrays Thomas Aquinas as a mysterious and brilliant man. Chesterton believes that Saint Thomas Aquinas view man as a whole, rather than as a beast like the anthropologists because Aquinas conceived men as an intricate spiritual being, not only flesh and blood. Aquinas, in opposition to the anthropology view, considered than man had a divine nature that makes humans special in relation to God.

Gilbert K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was an English novelist. After his conversión from Anglic to Catholic in 1922, he wrote books on religion such as “The Catholic Church Conversion”, “St. Francis of Assisi”, and the mentioned “Saint Thomas Aquinas.”

Chesterton explains how Thomas Aquinas was way ahead of his time in understanding what it means to be human and had a developed a great sense for ontology. He would argue that there are many of his own contemporaries that think and develop their ideas just like Aquinas did. You can use this as a starting point and develop your essay.

Some scholars Why did the Puritans leave England for America?
Temka [501]
<span>The Puritans separated from the churches in their local parishes where preaching was viewed as inadequate, hiring their own lecturers who were well-versed in reform theology. These lecturers were prosecuted by the monarch and Church of England officials. The last straw may have been when King Charles I dissolved Parliament in 1629. This dissolution prevented Puritan leaders from working within the system to effect change and left them vulnerable to persecution. Moderate Puritans chartered the Massachusetts Bay Colony in the same year. The New World represented both a refuge from persecution and an opportunity to establish a “Zion in the wilderness.” Puritans imagined their migration to the New World mirrored the Biblical story of Exodus. Between 1629 and 1640, over 20,000 men, women and children left England to settle permanently in the Massachusetts Bay Colony in the Americas. When Parliament was re-established in 1640, migration dropped drastically.</span>
