Second Temple Homosexuality?
Hi, Peter. Good to be reading you again. I have a couple of days off from writing, so I am back. Anyway. I checked out the site you indicated. The basis of its ‘biblical review’ seems to be founded heavily on the assumption that Paul et al. were not aware of the kind of monogamous homosexuality we sometimes observe in our culture. I think we have it pretty clear from Plato that this certainly is NOT the case. If that assumption is pulled, where then can we put Paul’s statements on homosexual behaviour as one indicator that creation, led by humanity, has majorly gone off track of its intended function/status/being?
