This reconciliation resolves important tensions between Aristotelian science and Christian doctrine. Further, Rosental examines three contemporary accounts of what qualifies as an epistemically 'responsible' belief and argues that under Aquinas's account, faith should be counted as rational, and in an important, though modified sense, as justified.
