I know. This is not to say that biblical laws make sense, that they aren't hypocritical and contradictory, or that they never fail to take the whole picture into account. But thanks.Other than the fact that I don't entirely agree with point 1 (STD's can be transmitted by either anal or vaginal sex, and homosexuality does not always mean anal intercourse), that was a vey well-written post. Welcome!
I know. I was referring specifically to what the bible says about the act, and the reasons why they would make a rule against it. They likely had no understanding of the psychological aspects of homosexuality, so their primary basis for determining if two guys were gay would be if they caught them doing it. Primitive religious laws do not take love into account, and sex for pleasure is obviously bad because it doesn't result in procreation. Of course, one could argue that Saul of Tarsus (St. Paul) knew firsthand about the psychological aspect of homosexuality.ponderingturtle said:This is again assuming an overly strong connection between anal sex and homosexuality.
