Abstract

This article reflects from a supposed theoretical demonological determinant in contrast to the argument regarding the human responsibility in the thought of St. Thomas. And it drives us to talk about a possible human responsibility that it follows in the text of Aquinas Summa Theologica Ia / Iae, issue 114 which deals with the “attack / combat of demons” from the perspective of the “principle of responsibility” developed by Hans Jonas, in what concerns the foundation of human moral action. H. Jonas will help us from the contrast - a man and his commitment to the future of society, in order to reveal a new perspective on ethics at the apex of responsibility. Our main argument rests on the idea that she spent time praising God or condemn only the only devil in relation to human behavior, whether meritorious dimensionality in positive or negative. So our text articulates the philosophy and theology towards a re-thinking the way Queiruga on the fate of religion and the community of believers. Therefore, as a result attempt to propose the idea that the man who knows — is the man who does — and is responsible for all his the world and in contemporary society.
