According to Chesterton, what is the most important difference between St. Thomas Aquinas and the Neoplatonists? Aquinas followed Aristotle and rejected Plato. Aquinas wanted to understand the true nature of human beings. Aquinas believed that all knowledge was based on sensory experience. Aquinas was more interested in the origin of evil than exploring inner experience.

The answer is: Aquinas believed that all knowledge was based on sensory experience.

According Aquinas. throughout the years, people will utilize our sense of sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell to acquire as much information as we can.

This process happen when we observe other people's behavior or every objects that lay around at our disposal. After the observation, we store the information into our memory and store it as 'knowledge' that we might use in the future.
