    What is your source for this? Sounds like something my religious grandma drops to justify all of the bad in that book.

      I am betting the are misremembering a thing that was making the rounds claiming that Paul meant in one of his letters Romans chapter 1.

      It isn’t correct because

      A. He had a perfectly good Greek word for being a pedo and didn’t use it

      B. The passage is clear that it was consensual act he was condemning

      C. Who cares? We have two other letters (one granted is a forgery) where it is condemned

      Why can’t people just accept that these people were homophobic? They were. If you are from an Abrahamic faith your skydaddy is a homophobic piece of shit and so we’re the people who claim to speak for him. Stop praying to it.
