Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

[TT] AS for the first point, it seems that it is not a Catholic proposition to claim that humans can be begotten by incubus and succubus demons. [AG 1] The begetting of humans was instituted by God before the introduction of sin, in that he shaped woman as an aid for man from his rib. To them He said, “Grow and increase in number” (Gen. 1[:28]) and again with inspiration Adam said, “There will be two in one flesh” (Gen. 3 [actually, 2:24]). Similarly, under natural law after the introduction of sin Noah was told, “grow and increase in number” (Gen. 9[:1]). In the period of the New Law, too, this union was confirmed by Christ (“Did you not read that from the beginning He who made humans made them male and female?” (Matt. 19[:4])). Therefore, other methods of begetting humans should not be posited. If it is said that demons co-operate not as a natural but as an artificial origin when they contribute to natural conception by taking the seed of humans | and later pouring it in, the contrary is so, because the Devil would have this virtue either in connection with any status, whether within marriage or outside it, or only in one. The first is not so, because in that case the work of the Devil would be stronger than that of God, Who instituted or confirmed every status (for instance that of the celibate and the married). The second is also not so, because nothing can be read in the Scriptures about humans of one status and not the other being begotten in this way. [AG 2] Also, to beget a human is the act of a living body, but demons cannot give life when they have assumed bodies, because life flows in a formal sense only from the soul, and this is the act of a physical, organic body that has the power of life ([Aristotle] The Soul , Bk. 2 [2.4]). Therefore, they cannot perform the works characteristic of life through such assumed bodies.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
