very modern.

Even in the Greek and Roman world it was considered wrong for two men of equal status to have sex. Only a man of higher status could penetrate a man (or boy) of lower status.

Jews considered all men equal. And in many cultures, inheritance rights were foundational. So even what we call gay people had wives and children.

                                                                                The problem is you aren’t going by what the Bible says. You - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:20:16
                                                                                     YOU are the one not going by what the Bible says - Spanky KU - 1/10 11:22:53
                                                                                          Dude. Genesis 18, God has already cast judgment on Sodom. - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:29:49
                                                                                               What was the "grievous sin" in Genesis 18? - Spanky KU - 1/10 11:55:17
                                                                                                    You are a functional illiterate. Genesis 18 doesn’t say. So - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:59:05
                                                                                                         what was the "grievous sin" in Genesis 18?(nm) - Spanky KU - 1/10 12:22:53
                                                                                                              The text doesn’t say. It also doesn’t say there was just - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 12:39:49
                                                                                                                   Genesis 19 says homosexuality and yes... it says "sin" - Spanky KU - 1/10 12:44:20
                                                                                                                        So was a “sin offering” on the Day of Atonement just - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 12:57:59
                                                                                                                             context.. Genesis said "grievous sin" .... not "sins" - Spanky KU - 1/10 13:28:08
                                                                                               they also said they were sent to destroy it - well before - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 11:34:25
                                                                      are you arguing that incest is ok b/c of silence in - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 11:05:59
                                                                           are you arguing that homosexuality is ok because Genesis - Spanky KU - 1/10 11:13:32
                                                                                No. You are dense. I am saying the destruction of Sodom was - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:17:40
                                                                                     And yet Genesis 19 uses homsexuality as the reason - Spanky KU - 1/10 11:20:03
                                                                                          it does not. It was full of sin and wickedness. - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 11:33:21
                                                                                          No. It doesn’t. You are ripping it out of context. (nm) - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:21:02
                                                                                               Nope.. that's your heathen schtick - Spanky KU - 1/10 11:23:54
                                                                                no. - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 11:16:02
                                                            Of course. The Biblical texts don’t portray God as - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 10:55:06
                                                                 But God destroyed the inhabitants of Sodom - Spanky KU - 1/10 10:59:42
                                                                      No. He passed judgment on them already. Read Genesis 18 - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:00:58
                                                                           False! Genesis 18: 20-21 - Spanky KU - 1/10 12:47:51
                                                                                Man you really struggle with reading comprehension. Do you - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 13:34:48
                                                                                     What words in Genesis 18: 20-21 confused you? - Spanky KU - 1/10 13:59:33
                                                                                          Follow the story, not your flawed interpretation. - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 14:40:11
                                                                                               God says he is going to Sodom to see REASON for the outcry. - Spanky KU - 1/10 15:02:07
                                                  Lot’s daughters were engaged. They belonged to other men. - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 10:40:17
                                                       and yet Sodom would not have been destroyed had the - Spanky KU - 1/10 10:48:04
                                                            The text never says that. These events are after Abraham - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 10:57:07
                                                                 The text never says that Lot was punished for impregnating - Spanky KU - 1/10 10:58:52
                                                                      was Laban punished for lying to Jacob? - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 11:12:02
                                                                      So? Lot disappears from the story. It says nothing period - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:02:14
                                                                           The story of Sodom is about homosexuality.. not rape - Spanky KU - 1/10 11:21:40
                                                                                so it was ok if they raped his daughters?(nm) - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 11:34:49
                                                                                     it appears that would have spared Sodom from destruction - Spanky KU - 1/10 13:56:39
                                                            that's not true. - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 10:56:34
                                                                 Which is why the text doesn’t support those who claim Sodom - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:00:11
                                                                      it says they were evil and wicked. The only sins mentioned - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 11:07:56
                                                                           Right. But some want to fill in the blanks with a big gay - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 11:26:33
                         Yes. Rape is bad. Thanks for confirming(nm) - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 10:12:59
                              Raping a woman that belongs to another man. If she’s - TigerMatt KC - 1/10 10:19:07
                                   do you think that's a good rule for Christians today?(nm) - CulturedDan MU - 1/10 10:19:43
