    Riojia, Joan
    A. HUMAN ACT AND ACT OF MAN

    Human Act – it is a one that proceeds from the


    deliberate free will of a man. It is an act that is deliberately
    and knowingly performed by one having the use of reason.
    Act of Man – it is the one that is not dependent upon
    intellect and free will.
    FOR AN ACT TO BE CONSIDERED A HUMAN ACT
    IT MUST POSSESS THE FOLLOWING ESSENTIAL
    ATTRIBUTES:
    1. It must be performed by a conscious agent who is
    aware of what he is doing and of its consequences.
    2. It must be perform by an agent who is acting freely,
    that is, by his own volition and powers.

    willfully to perform the act.

    allowable regardless of purpose or circumstances.
    3. If an act is in itself morally good or at least indifferent, its morality will be
    judged by the purpose or circumstances.
    4. Circumstances may create, mitigate or aggravate sin. They may change an
    indifferent act into one that is morally sinful.

    the act is good.
