Man and Sin by Piet Schoonenberg (1964) 2.3 QY
[Let me return to the intersection.
At the extreme, the imposer objectifies and the subject is completely objectified.
I3b and me1a become, what Giorgio Agamben called, homo sacer.
The mirror of the world3a becomes the camp.]
Man and Sin by Piet Schoonenberg (1964) 2.3 QX
[The potential inherent in something in regards to my choice1V does not virtually emerge from and situate the potential in me1H (as it does in the interscope).
A single actuality2 contains contradictions between my choice2V and something that situates my potential2H. These contradictions pervade the experience of my heart2.]
Man and Sin by Piet Schoonenberg (1964) 2.3 QW
[For the intersection. I, seat of choice3V, contextualizes the potentials inherent in a choice that does not fully situate the potentials inherent in me1V.
The choice may be a forced choice. Or the choice may be a habit that no longer reflects the possibilities in me. Or the choice may be determined through reason.]

[In the intersection, something2a stands at the center of the co-opposition of responsibility3H(2H and freedom2H(1H)).
Responsibility and freedom grow and shrink as a unified field.]
Man and Sin by Piet Schoonenberg (1964) 2.3 QU
[One actuality is I can play the victim2H.
Can a victim make such a claim?
Does that claim contradict the actuality in the vertical nested form?
I cannot be a victim if I choose to do what it takes to fit the bureaucratic criteria2V.
The heart of the welfare recipient is torn by contradiction.]

[Responsibility3H(2H contains the normal context.
Freedom2H(1H)) includes potential.
Both include the actuality2H that will be put into context and that emerges from the potential of the person, me1H.]

[In the modern definition, less ‘freedom’ means more ‘responsibility’.
Less ‘responsibility’ means greater ‘freedom’.
‘Freedom’ and ‘responsibility’ are opposed.
So, from the intersecting nested form of the welfare recipient, ‘the mirror of the world3H’ lifts a key responsibility weighing the recipient’s heart2. Now, the recipient is free (without responsibility) to realize the potential of a disability.
The recipient can work, but the recipient also cannot work.
Remember the realm of possibility allows contradictions.]

[It doesn’t matter whether the sovereign gives you something2a or takes something2a away from you. What matters is that something2a reflects both your potential1a, ultimately, your choice3b.
At the extreme, the subject is completely objectified.
I3b and me1a become, what Giorgio Agamben called, homo sacer.
The mirror of the world3a becomes the camp.]
