Question 24 — Of Good and Evil in the Passions of the Soul

We must now consider good and evil in the passions of the soul: and under this head there are four points of inquiry:

(1) Whether moral good and evil can be found in the passions of the soul?

  • (2) Whether every passion of the soul is morally evil?
  • (3) Whether every passion increases or decreases the goodness of malice of an act?
  • (4) Whether any passion is good or evil specifically?
