Never mind trying to post the Greek alphabet part of the reference, but here is the "offending" word (actually ONE Greek word; several English words to render it) in the "offensive" passage:

abusers of themselves with mankind,
Strong's Number: 733
Transliterated Greek word: arsenokoítai

The Greek leaves NO DOUBT what is being spoken of. Oh, and the Greek is the "original" this idiot says they are "changing"; all the "changes of Scripture" he cites are merely differences in TRANSLATION; none substantially changes the meaning.

Now...

NT:733
a)rsenokoi/th$
arsenokoites (ar-sen-ok-oy'-tace); from NT:730 and NT:2845;
a sodomite:

KJV - abuser of (that defiles self) with mankind.
(Biblesoft's New Exhaustive Strong's Numbers and Concordance with Expanded Greek-Hebrew Dictionary. Copyright © 1994, 2003, 2006 Biblesoft, Inc. and International Bible Translators, Inc.)

Feel free to look up the word yourself, and to check the meanings of the #730 & # 2848 from which arsenokoites is derived. The meaning couldn't be more explicit.

Case dismissed.

My #21 should have been to Post #1, not #2. Sorry for any confusion.

This is one example why we need a national “make the loser pay,” element in tort reform.

At some point he will have a face-to-face encounter with that Author and at that time, his perspective will change dramatically.

I would counter-sue his butt, and make him pay my legal fees.

Let’s not use the term “Counter-sue his butt” in the context of this case. That’s a mental image nobody needs this early in the morning. Yuk!
