In writing this essay a second time, I want you to now think about this question in light of all we have read from Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, and Thomas Aquinas and I want you to critique your original response. How have these four philosophers altered or sharpened your new response to this question? Does one or more of them particularly shape your new response to and understanding of this question?
