PROBLEMATISING THE DEVELOPMENT OF SAME-SEX RHETORIC IN SELECTED REFORMED DENOMINATIONAL TRADITIONS IN SOUTH AFRICA
Abstract
If same-sex discourse is part of regulatory practices that both produce and control
bodies, its development in the Dutch Reformed Church requires a genealogical
enquiry into the discursive practices from which it has emerged. It is argued that the
same-sex discourse which has developed within the Dutch Reformed Church serves
to protect heteronormativity and biblical discourse, and integrated within regulatory
practice, is instrumental in its accomplishment.
