1. Aquinas refers to those bad men who are “like wild beats”. If you catch a murderer when he is sitting down for dinner, does he qualify? Could you personally pull the trigger? I have personally found in a different situation that I could not.
2. You quote from a work that I have referenced frequently. I assume that you are aware that it outlines the 2 critical components that must be present in every act of intercourse for it to be moral - conjugal love and procreation. It is the foundation for the Catholic Church’s stance on contraception and premarital sex.
Are you down with Aquinas, or are you picking and choosing?
