托马斯·阿奎那论宗教与政治

Thomas Aquinas' Opinions on Religion and Politics

作为神学家和西方教会的代言人,阿奎那深入讨论了宗教与政治的关系问题,包括如何协调教权与王权的关系、如何对待异教徒、如何对待叛教者等。针对不同情况,他的政策也不相同,但其目的只有一个:在保持基督教国家内部稳定的前提下,打击异教力量和异端分子,维护和加强教会的势力。

As the theologian and spokesman of the church ,Thomas Aquinas probed into questions concerning the relation between religion and politics, including how to humanize the power of church and the power of king, how to treat pagans and how to treat the treasons, etc. Aiming at different situations, he put forward different solutions. But his final purposes were to strike the pagan forces and heretics and maintain and enforce the power of the church.
