As a Catholic and as an (amateur) follower of science, I have tended to look at creation in 2 coexistent, interconnected realms: the physical universe inhabited by all matter including our bodies, governed by the physics of Newton, Einstein and the quantum physicists; and the spiritual realm, inhabited by our souls and the angels, which is outside those physical laws.
The metaphysics of Aristotle and Aquinas does not fit well, however. For example, where do forms of physical bodies reside?
I take this series to mean the view I have described above, is at best incomplete.
