Often witnesses of sexual relationships become involved in reflexive ways in the sexual relationships which they witness, with: approval, disapproval, envy, covetousness, lust, arousal, etc. Thus sexual relationships of the most intimate sort often occur in private, away from the intrusion and distraction of observers. If God is omni-present and omniscient; then God, (male, female, bi-sexual, homosexual, or androgynous) is present in all sexual relationships. How shall participants in sexual relationships regard the presence of God with them as they share their most intimate moments? Is God reflexively involved in their intimacy in the same way in which a human observer (male, female, bi- sexual, homosexual, or androgynous)---would be? What if the humans pray to God in the midst of their sexual intimacy? Does God "hear" such prayers? Without being involved in their intimacy? With involvement in their intimacy? Does God respond to such prayers? How? How are people who are involved in sexual intimacy to regard the involvement (if any) of God (their Father, or their Mother) in their sexuality. Is such involvement divine incest? Is divine incest subject to human's taboos, or to divine taboos? These are questions which are rarely discussed openly and honesty. Why? Is it good that they are not discussed? It is God's Will that they not be discussed openly and honestly? How can we know? Who knows? For sure? How? (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
