Summary/Abstract: Our analysis starts from the premise that the symbiotic act of two existences cannot be possible as long as the entities involved do not give up the free will. The two personal histories are marked by the rejection of obedience, doubled by a strong sexual attraction. A coincidentia oppositorum in which divine intervention produces a constant discordant field. The result: the man becomes the lover of the demon "divorced" of the angel.
