Yes, I know the book. I think Lewis was right. I remember, way back when, having to dispell the myth of ‘homo-eroticism’ between Gilgamesh and Enkidu to colleagues in university department meeting.
Moonbat: “Well, it’s clear that The Epic of Gilgamesh is saturated with homo-eroticism.”
Me: What evidence do you have for that?
Moonbat: “Come on! The text says that Gilgamesh loved Enkidu.”
Me: The text also says Gilgamesh loved his sword. That doesn’t mean he was having sex with it.
Idiots.
Nice repartee. What really bugs me is when people make Jonathan and David out to be homosexual. Jonathan had a child, and David - well, his heterosexuality is pretty obvious from the Bible. They were also both godly men, and homosexual behavior is a serious sin.
