その他の書誌記述:This article proposes a queer and feminist re-reading of the Gospel passage Mark 7:15–23, questioning traditional notions of purity and sexual morality in Christian theology. From the subjective experience of a Latin American homosexual believer, the author examines how biblical, patristic, and psychiatric discourses have contributed to the dehumanization of non-normative bodies and desires. Drawing from the narrative in which Jesus declares that “nothing that enters a person from outside can defile them,” the article develops a critique of religious structures that have used categories of purity and impurity to exclude and criminalize dissident identities. The concepts of kósmos, moral order, and the body are analyzed as spaces of symbolic power and control. Finally, a new Christian sexual ethic is proposed—one grounded in consent, reciprocity, and care—that recognizes all bodies and pleasures as sacred expressions capable of revealing the divine.
