Pretty good choices tbqh. Another good one would be G.E.M. Anscombe. Where can I find a pious Catholic philosopher gf? Or a better question, how do I make a pious Catholic girl interested in philosophy so I can talk with her about it?

Wasn't she influenced by Richard McKeon, who was a big time Aristotelian along with being influenced by Aristotle himself? How come she hates Western civilization so much when she was influenced by the man who is the intellectual foundation of it? Seems like she just has diagnosed daddy problems

Being a woman hating incel is a sin. Being a volcel that recognizes the beauty of an intelligent Catholic woman is where it's at.

The Church is more than a part of "civilization". It's literally the Bride of Christ and even Christ himself said that the gates of Hell shall not prevail over her. Even in the darkest of times, God has a larger plan that we don't see. At the same time, we shouldn't be complacent and say "God will handle it". We should be especially proactive and make sure the Church survives, even if that means it shrinks for a time.

On an unrelated question:
Why do I have a crush on St. Edith Stein (she's so cute bro. I can't help it. Whenever I look at her I almost want to cry. She's not only physically beautiful but she's intelligent and so feminine and she's so God-fearing it actually hurts my heart a little bit every time I realize that she's in heaven now. I pray to God every day that I meet a woman like her in my college's Catholic ministry but at the same time I realize it's going to be a while to see if my prayers are answered. I'm sorry for this blogpost, it's just something I need to get off my chest)? Do women like her really still exist nowadays?

Catholic Answers is a pit of autism. It's not the Church though.

If you are a fan of early Continental philosophy or Husserl and like Catholic apologetics, check out Edith Stein.

She's still very much beautiful tbqh. Yeah her face is pretty fucked up, but any meaningful sort of beauty isn't skin deep. She's got a very quick wit and a soul like a pearl. That's all I really need in respect to women.
