Is polyamory the next pastoral sexual frontier, and if so, how should we respond?
from Ask Dr. E · host Michael Easley
Q: According to an article in Christianity Today, polyamory is the next pastoral sexual frontier. My son and daughter-in-law are polyamorous. They have been married 9 years and have two kids, they each have significant others, and these individuals are part of their family unit. They spend time with the kids and are with the family much of the time, including overnight. My daughter-in-law's parents, like me, have a huge issue with this lifestyle choice. If we host a family event, we do not include the "extras," we've also let them know that we choose not to interface with these individuals at events hosted by others, as we can't see how to do that without condoning or appearing to condone this choice. While both were raised in Christian homes, neither claim belief in God and are both adamantly opposed to religion, specifically Christianity. Dr. Christopher Yuan joins Dr. E to answer this question.
