How do Buddhists regard Aquinas's Cosmological Argument, or Aquinas's Five Ways in general?

Why does Aquinas believe that God is sentient? In proposing that to lack some knowledge is to lack some potential, he says that to have some potential is to have some knowledge. While this might apply to humans, it doesn't apply to, say, the collective matter of planet earth, which has immense potential but no knowledge whatsoever. If Aquinas is saying God is the Truth then that's reasonable but knowledge not Truth but a recognition of the Truth, which requires sentience.
