Homosexuality is correct and they will be protected to the full extent of the law..

Blame Jerome then, he translated the greek to latin.

He did. But translations since the Vulgate have referred back to the Greek.

Christ doesn't say anything in the "old testament". However, it is said that he made reference to the "old testament" in his teachings etc.

I believe that Jesus does mention it not being kosher to spill your seed on barren earth and chucking yer man-muck up someone's poop-chute strikes me as being barren.

ROFL!!! If it was written like that I might have bothered reading the bloody thing

It must be from a paraphrased version.

Anyway, that Jude quote in full.

ως σοδομα και γομορρα και αι περι αυτας πολεις τον ομοιον τουτοις τροπον εκπορνευσασαι και απελθουσαι οπισω σαρκος ετερας προκεινται δειγμα πυρος αιωνιου δικην υπεχουσαι

So that's clear then. So long as you have a full understanding of the word ετερας which is pronounced "Heteros"...

So that's clear then.

Hmm that doesn't quite excite me as much as Churchills version!

Ahhh so "Phil the Greek" was actually "Fill the Greek"...

Very clever. Just Babled this. It's not from the Bible, its a recipe for Hummus!

The thread is so active you might not have spotted my edit, where I've point out that the word translated as "strange", is ετερας, which is pronounced "Heteros". Presumably the root word for "Heterosexual"

[original PM]

Judges 19:22-25 (New International Version)
22 While they were enjoying themselves, some of the wicked men of the city surrounded the house. Pounding on the door, they shouted to the old man who owned the house, "Bring out the man who came to your house so we can have sex with him."
23 The owner of the house went outside and said to them, "No, my friends, don't be so vile. Since this man is my guest, don't do this disgraceful thing. 24 Look, here is my virgin daughter, and his concubine. I will bring them out to you now, and you can use them and do to them whatever you wish. But to this man, don't do such a disgraceful thing."
25 But the men would not listen to him. So the man took his concubine and sent her outside to them, and they raped her and abused her throughout the night, and at dawn they let her go.

So it would appear that while the bible thinks homosexuality is wrong gang rape is fun for all the family

I think that kind of puts a stop on using the bible as any serious text to quote.
