Saint Thomas Aquinas believed that the existence of God could be proven in five ways. he argues that sacred doctrine is a science whose principles (or basic starting points) are subalternate to the principles of another higher science.

Answer:

One of Thomas Aquinas' key claims in Question One of his Summa Theologiae is that sacred doctrine is a 'science,' in Latin scientia. More specifically, he argues that sacred doctrine is a science whose principles (or basic starting points) are subalternate to the principles of another higher science.
