Love, Marriage and Sex in Modern life and Christian Metaphysics

SENSESPACE

It was great to air and explore some of my ongoing thinking through of Love, Marriage and Sex with Michelle Garner of O.G. Rose who brings to bear her philosophical, christian and personal perspectives. We examine the significance of love philosophically and explore how, in a pre-modern context, love, sex and marriage where once self-evidently wedded. We consider the original context of marriage as a triad between two partners and God and how the spirit of marriage and faith both entail a commitment to the unknown. How are christological love and romantic distinct and where does conflation lead to dangerous error? What is sex after the invention of birth control, is casual sex playing with fire in relation to deep coded value systems? How does long term love paradoxically hold together both: the complete givennness of the love commitment and the ever-present possibility of other partners. O.G.
