Read this excerpt from g. k. chesterton's "the permanent philosophy." then, explain how st. thomas aquinas reconciles faith and reason based on this excerpt. your answer should be at least 150 words. {st. thomas says, quite straightforwardly, that he himself believes this world has a beginning and end; because such seems to be the teaching of the church; the validity of which mystical message to mankind he defends elsewhere with dozens of quite different arguments. aquinas says he sees no particular reason, in reason, why this world should not be a world without end; or even without beginning. and he is quite certain that, if it were entirely without end or beginning, there would still be exactly the same logical need of a creator. anybody who does not see that, he gently implies, does not really understand what is meant by a creator. ("the permanent philosophy"; p. 9)

explanatithe story "two kinds" , revolves around a strict relationship between a mother and daughter. the mother tries very hard to make sure her daughter jing mei , is successful in life and lives up to her full potential. the story explores alot of different themes. though , there is one theme that really stands out. you cant force someone to be something that their not.

jing mei's mother was an immagrant from china. she moved to the united states to give her daughter , jing mei , a better and successful life for her. and being raised in china with their strict rules and striving to be perfect took a toll on her and her daughters relationship. she pressures her daughter to be great and perfect all the time but it gets really hard for her to live up to her mothers standards. her mother believes that jing mei can be a child prodigy and prepares her to be and act like one. furthermore , the story ends with jing mei getting everything off her chest and seeing the dissappointment in her mothers eyes as she finds out her daughter has not lived up to her full potential. and her mother has finally gained an understanding of her daughter.
