Acts of man are acts that can be shared with other animals. This includes acts such as sleeping and eating. Human acts, on the other hand, are acts that are proper only to man. Such acts include cursing, suicide, killing, and the like.
The phrase "an act of man" seems to exclude the acts of women, who are also members of the human race. So "human act" is more inclusive.
Suicide is a human act. FYI, an act of man is an act that can be shared with other animals. This includes acts such as sleeping and eating. A human act, on the other hand, is an act that is proper ONLY to man. Such acts include cursing and the like. So suicide is an act that only man can think of and, therefore, making it a human act since animals would never attempt to suicide because every animal's instinct is to survive.
What a human does as opposed to what God does.
Human acts are done with awareness, freedom and capacity of knowledge. However, act of man are behaviors arising without capacity for knowledge and freedom. It can be described as an accident
Acts of Man or Human act sound relative, by lexicon the two phrases are very close but going deeper into their matters and functions, one finds them different from each other. An act that is not proper to man as a rational being is called Act of Man Example eating, hearing, tasting, smelling, etc. Human Acts are actions or activities that emanate from the rationality of man Example: To vote a candidate To decide To teach To love To hate, to read, to study, etc.
ACT, HUMAN (Latin actus humanus)-a human action, an act of decision, whose source is in rational knowledge and free will. The human act is not limited to the cognitive action of the intellect, nor is it manifested chiefly in theoretical knowledge, but it takes in practical cognition (acts of decision) and "poetic" cognition, namely creative and artistic cognition. Human action originates in man as a rational and free being. The human act differs from an "act of man", in which something happens independently of man's will
The spirit that is within man makes him human, as opposed to the spirit of animals which make them animals. Man has the ability to reason while animals act mostly by instinct.
Behavior is a system of actions that come as a response to different events.
Human acts are imputable to man so as to involve his responsibility, for the very reason that he puts them forth deliberatively and with self-determination. They are, moreover, not subject to physical laws which necessitate the agent, but to a law which lays the will under obligation without interfering with his freedom of choice. Besides, they are moral. For a moral act is one that is freely elicited with the knowledge of its conformity with or difformity from, the law of practical reason proximately and the law of God ultimately. But whenever an act is elicited with full deliberation, its relationship to the law of reason is adverted to. Hence human acts are either morally good or morally bad, and their goodness or badness is imputed to man. And as, in consequence, they are worthy of praise or blame, so man, who elicits them, is regarded as virtuous or wicked, innocent or guilty, deserving of reward or punishment. Upon the freedom of the human act, therefore, rest imputability and morality, man's moral character, his ability to pursue his ultimate end not of necessity and compulsion, but of his own will and choice; in a word, his entire dignity and preeminence in this visible universe. Example: Human acts- action that is guided by reasons or actions that can be limited. example: exercise to be physically fit, etc... Acts of man- instinctive; physiological. example: crying, falling in love, eating, etc...
this is very simple.act of human means that either the will or knowledge is absent while human act is the complete presence of the will and the knowledge.
