emotions, moral value of emotions, psychologismAbstract
In discussions and publications of some authors, also Catholic ones, there appears a popular thesis suggesting that human emotions are not subject to moral judgment. It seems that the reference to the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas or the Catechism of the Catholic Church to prove this point may be a sign of, at least, a careless reading of these texts as this thesis is absolutely incompatible with them.
The aim of this article is to present anthropological and ethical determinants of the problem, in particular to indicate that the adoption by some theologians anthropological foundations is contrary to the Revelation and originates from influential psychological concepts and the ignorance of various manifestations of emotional life resulting from the lack of precision in formulating their moral evaluation.
