Well, a lot of us do take a stand - but I don't think we are ever effective when we throw the word sodomite around frankly. Yes, I realize it's genesis and meaning and validity...it's just that there are more intelligent ways to win these battles....That term guarantees tuning out of those we need to help win this battle. GUARANTEED.
If it is accurate and genuine and full of meaning and valid, then perhaps the word ought to be used.
I don’t think most people think or want to think about what happens to the human body during such behavior...and how harmful it can be to the body.
But I digress. That word “sodomite” is RARELY used in public discussion of the sins of homosexuality...and by the way, how are we doing on the stemming of that sin? Not too good.
So I don’t think the use of that word has much to do with our lack of success.
What word would you use? Would you permit the world to change the definition of the behavior, much like they’re trying to change the definition of the word marriage?
