Abstrakt

Autor porusza kwestię małżeństwa i życia rodzinnego w świetle Ecclesia in Africa. Docenia dokument jako kamień milowy w życiu kościelnym Afryki. Prezentuje różne kształtujące się na świecie modele rodziny w świetle tradycyjnego katolickiego rozumienia małżeństwa. Podkreśla, że afrykański model rodziny poligamicznej powinien zostać ponownie przeanalizowany i przemyślany w świetle pojawiających się zachodnich modeli rodzin gejowskich i lesbijskich.
