Thomas Aquinas
Italian Dominican friar and theologian who synthesized Aristotelian philosophy with Christian theology.

His five proofs for God's existence and natural law theory shaped Western philosophy. Aquinas's integration of reason and faith established him as Doctor of the Church and major scholastic philosopher.
