QUESTION 142

OF THE VICES OPPOSED TO TEMPERANCE

(In Four Articles)

We must now consider the vices opposed to temperance. Under this head

there are four points of inquiry:

(1) Whether insensibility is a sin?

(2) Whether intemperance is a childish sin?

(3) Of the comparison between intemperance and timidity;

(4) Whether intemperance is the most disgraceful of vices?
