Scholasticism
Scholasticism is a method of critical thinking, that emphasizes the exchange of different arguments or thesis to develop a conclusion from both sides that answer questions or resolve contradictions. It developed in the Middle Ages when people wanted to create a connection between, the Christian faith and ancient Greek and Roman ideas.
St. Thomas Aquinas (1224/25-1274), as a theologian, was one of the major medieval scholastics, he developed his own conclusions from Aristotle's works and several other ancient Greek and Roman philosopher with the sole purpose of reconciling that philosophy with Christian theology.
