>If you read the King James translation of the Bible, there are certain passages that can be interpreted as condemning homosexuality. For example, the events in Sodom can be interpreted to mean that the residents wanted to bugger the angels visiting Lot, after all they were all sodomites, weren't they? The reasoning is sort of circular and translation dependent, so... >There is also another place where it talks about men and men being an abomination. It's been a long time since I read the Old Testament, so I don't remember the details. AFAIK, lesbians aren't mentioned, but the OT is more than a little patriarchal. Besides, maybe they liked to watch... That was from Leviticus... but my question is, didn't St. Paul say that the laws of the Old Testament didn't apply to the time after Jesus' death? -Z
