The Gap Between Pornography and Mysterious Sexuality
I think there's an open question as to whether the information technologies that are increasingly governing our lives create a situation in which it's not even possible to really think about any type of imagery, say, being concealed. So if we were going to think about how mystery could continue to be attached in a sacred way to actual sexuality, we would then need to think about the gap between pornography and mysterious sexuality. How do we relate to the difference between those two domains in a way that preserves that mystery? I don't think that access to pornography necessarily takes away the sacred, but most people certainly don't know how to use it.
