I think their argument misses the point entirely. The word ἀρσενοκοῖται was in use in Greek society a long, long time ago.

Just because the English word homosexual was not used back then the meaning of the term was clearly understood.

This movie, though, apparently makes the claim that the RSV editors coined the word “homosexual” and mistranslated the Bible in doing so, and as a consequence, mistakenly condemned homosexual acts and relationships.

It seems the movie is meant to create a false narrative that will have an influence on those exposed to it, especially those who know little about the Bible and the history of the word “homosexual.”
