James Chastek: The Point of Sexual Desire
Aristotle's reflections on the end of reproduction, on the "natural" level remind me of what I read from St. Maximos the Confessor on the garments of skin and the fall of Adam and Eve and the consequences of that fall.
The intensity of our desire for coitus is a result of the fall?
Aristotle can be used to support a Patristic view on the 'garments of skin' rather than John Paul II's Theology of the Body?
