520 | |a The article explores the question of religion and sexuality using popular cultural representations as a discussion partner. The focus is on the sexuality of savior characters in the imaginary worlds of the American film and Tv-series maker Joss Whedon.

The complex portrayals of both saviors and sexuality in the Whedonverse are argued to point to some ineresting and noteworthy aspects of sex and Christianity in a contemporary context. issues that are brought to the surface refer to the importance of sex and love and problems with seeing sex ad inherently good or bad. In the article, the essentialness of a space where the issue of religion and sex can be explored is stressed and the need for the discussion to continue is underlined. | ||
