Summary:St. Thomas Aquinas said that certain human actions are secundum se mala, but he never said that any actions are intrinsice mala. A study of the published and unpublished texts of St. Thomas' immediate disciples and successors (up to fifty years after Thomas' death) traces the development of St. Thomas' teaching and reveals that the doctrine of intrinsically evil acts was formulated by the fourteenth-century anti-Thomist, Durand of St. Pourçain.
