How do we develop the tools for not being taken in by poor philosphy?

If you can find his ‘Introduction to Philosophy’ it would be a good but somewhat simplified book. But he was prolific. There are other Neo-Thomists of merit too.

There was a used bookstore I frequented 25 years ago that had a grand collection of Maritain. I kind of depleted it.

It's important that you don't just buy into what someone tells you. Do your own homework by the Word and allowing the Holy Spirit to reveal it to you.

Never listen to man over God.
