Artyom Kosmarski
This paper seeks to provide a theological justification for the singularity of heterosexual relationships, without relying on traditionalist heteronormative arguments. I explore idea man and woman as Others, by relating male-female difference not gender binary (a coercive pattern two entities), but otherness. Then, link awareness Other (and all ethical existential implications thereof) with sexual difference; argue that learning live in flesh is prerequisite life heaven, space unbounded interaction including God. Next, propose theory sex act an incarnation proceed analysis what same-sex intercourse incarnates person’s body soul. The conception then considered epiphany God (that is, procreation goal, condition being open His life-giving intervention non-contraceptive intercourse). elaborate upon nurturing child one way experiencing Trinity. Finally, give reading Jesus’ words Matt. 19:3-12 directly addressing issue homo- heterosexuality love/marriage path).
