Do we interpret Theology via Aristotle's method of scientific inquiry or rational, systematic ontology, the scientific approach or is there a better way?

What is the Eucharist? Can it be defined or intellectually explained? Or is it a mystery and beyond rational discussion?


How did the west displace the mystical experiences of God and instead stress the rational explanation of God as the sole means of knowing God? Who was Thomas Aquinas and what were his methods?

Is there much wisdom in a theological science of the study of God? 


Can the faith be improved or changed in a substantive way? Or only re-said, re-stated, with different words, to further clarify something in the faith that may need defending from heresy?

According to Western Christianity what do the below mean and contrast them with Traditional Christianity:

   Papal Inerrancy

   Limbo

   Original Guilt

   Immaculate Conception

   Purgatory
