In this video from my Spring 2013 Introduction to Philosophy class at Marist College, we examine Thomas Aquinas' discussions about Truth and Falsity (though not getting much into the latter) in Summa Theologiae, Prima Pars, questions 16 and 17. We discuss the relationships between truth, being, and goodness, and Thomas' insistence that truth is primarily in the intellect, either the human intellect or the divine intellect. Towards the end, one of my student asks a broader-based, very important question about what happens when we take God out of the picture in this scheme.
