Thomas Aquinas, the guy who combined the Hellenic and Roman philosophical traditions (Plato, Aristotle, as well as stoicism) with the living transcendental reality of Christ.

How does he reconcile unconditional love with Hellenic traditions? Jesus is just another flavor of stoicism.
He preached sympathy in a time where we had deviated from that mean. But unconditional love is too far off the mark of the mean. Good that cannot defend itself from evil is not the greatest possible good. That's why not a single christian is able to practice what they actually preach.

I think you're too closely equating the Stoic and the Christian. It's much more apt to call (early) Christianity a post-Judaic transfiguration of Platonism
