The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

St. Thomas Aquinas took on the challenge of resolving this conflict in his writings. How did he accomplish this through his words?

The context is this. It is true that Medieval thinkers struggled to balance the relationship between faith and reason. They were in constant conflict and under the severe scrutiny of the Catholic church's institution of the Inquisition. That is when Averroes's "theory of the double truth" stated that the two types of knowledge were in direct opposition to each other.

However, it came St. Thomas Aquinas with a brilliant concept that represented a solution to Averroes's ideas.

St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) had a revolutionary mind for his time. He has a distinct approach and stated that religion and science can intermingle because science and religion came from the mind of God. So science and religion were compatible concepts, although his ideas created some kind of controversy in some social and religious strata in medieval times.

St. Thomas Aquinas saw no obstacles to consider the collaboration of science and religion if that meant the growth of the mind and the advancement of people.

Answer: Is down below

Explanation:

The Dark Ages ●Was the period between 400 AD and 1400 AD a “Dark Age” for Europe? ●Was this a time of cultural decay and decline? The American Cyclopedia “The Dark Ages is a term applied in its widest sense to that period of intellectual depression in the history of Europe from the establishment of the barbarian supremacy in the fifth century (400 AD) to the revival of learning at about the beginning of the fifteenth (1400 AD), thus nearly corresponding in extent with the Middle Ages.” Textbook A 1.What type of document is this? A textbook excerpt. 2.When was it written? Was written in 1965. 3.How long does this textbook suggest the “Dark Ages” lasted? 624 years. 476 to 1100. 4.Why, according to this textbook, were the “early Middle Ages” a “Dark Age”? Europe suffered a decline in economy, literature, art, culture, education. When barbarians invaded there was disorder, chaos, travel was not safe. Government could not keep order. There was violence, theft, decline in manufacturing, commerce, education. Government lost control and it all fell to pieces. A poverty stricken time. 5.What is similar and different about this account and the American Cyclopaedia entry? Similar: see the dark ages as a negative time for Europe. Agree that it is an adequate name for this time period. Use the ‘barbarism’ term. Textbook says it was ‘semi’ whereas the cyclopedia said it was ‘supreme’ barbarism. Mention a decline in education. Differences: time period, one only mentions intellectual depression, the other talks about

What is your perspective of feelings about the other Monotheistic Faiths?
Ksenya-84 [330]
I think there is no difference between the God of Muhammed, Jesus and Moses. Their God is thesame although their have different faiths. Their rituals are the only different thing but believing in only one God makes us similar in a way.

That's what I think! :D
