It's really a matter of translation :) (you do know that the Bible wasn't written in english... and was revised several times during the middle ages, to fit the requirements better)
and for the other part the Bishop might have been referring to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_and_David
I'm sure you know the story... but read the interpretations :P (I'm a bit too busy these days to go into depths of christian mysticism so wikipedia will have to suffice)
This is a weak tool of the ungodly. To quote wikipedia - "Some scholars (a strong minority) insinuate innuendo in David's "bowing three times" before Jonathan and David's subsequent "exceeding". It has been suggested this is a reference to oral sex and ejaculation. "
Perverts see perversion in everything. Those who know Hebrew know better.
and for the other part the Bishop might have been referring to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_and_DavidThe Bible, in Leviticus and by the Apostle Paul, clearly and unambiguously condemns same-sex intercourse as an abomination.
I'll take that clear language over an insinuation about David & Jonathan any day. Show me even one clear and unambiguous verse in the Bible in which God blesses such sex, and you might have a case.
Otherwise its just speculation, unlike the outright condemnation of gay sex.
You might want to find some time in your busy schedule to study the Bible and get the truth for yourself. Watching or reading The DaVinci Code and googling up a wikipedia article certainly will do wonders to find the latest screed against the Bible, but little to actually shed any true light. Take the time to read the Bible for yourself, and come to your own conclusions.
Hmmmm...a homosexual advocacy Wiccan from Slovenia. Why am I suspicious that you're actually a grad student in San Francisco?
