I've reposted this before. Here is the actual translation/understanding of where the word "sodomy" came from:
sodomy is about homosexual rape used to intimidate. It's not about homosexual behavior. Dumb misnomer that has been presented for generations, causing the word to by used incorrectly.
It isn't really about homosexuality at all. Rape in general.
Ezekiel 16:49-50:Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.
Isaiah 1:9-10:Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah. Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.God does not want "things"
Isaiah 1:11:To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.God does not want you to bring special things to him...
I have plenty more.
I believe the Bible was altered, it isn't magical anybody can alter it. The concept of orientation didn't come into bring until around 150 years ago. With the rise of knowledge came the understanding that some people prefer one gender to the other. Thus upset many people I am sure, the same thing they say now..."its not natural, its not good. It is contagious" on and on. So in the ease one has in a position of authority in a church the just forced this false crap into the Bible, likely because the people doing so didn't like it. The Bible want written in modern English we have to rely on scholars to interpret it. Thus the word of God is manipulated by man. I am not naive enough to believe that through the years of the Bibles existence that man didn't dip their finger in the pie, play God just a little. Power corrupts, what better power to have than to edit the word?
