  Saint Thomas (Aquinas), Mary T. Clark (2000). “An Aquinas Reader”, p.441, Fordham Univ Press

• Given the sin of impiety through which they [the Romans] sinned against the divine nature [by idolatry], the punishment that led them to sin against their own nature followed.... I say, therefore, that since they changed into lies [by idolatry] the truth about God, He brought them to ignominious passions, that is, to sins against nature; not that God led them to evil, but only that he abandoned them to evil.
