Western Christianity, an Italian Dominican friar, philosopher, Catholic priest, and Doctor of the Church Thomas Aquinas, said that "Still, if some are occasionally begotten from demons, it is not from the seed of such demons, nor their assumed bodies, but from the seed of men, taken for the purpose; as when the demon assumes first the form of a woman, and afterward of a man; so that they take the seed of other things for other generating purposes."
