JUDY wrote: And the homosexuals/sodomites themselves love these newer translations. I was on a Christian list where one who claimed to be a believer translated every scripture having to do with homosexuality into a social problem. He found a scripture in Ezekiel that described some of Sodom's other problems; he also brought up the pagan temple prostitution. They have an answer for everything and are in total ignorance, darkness, and deception and here you are using one of their arguments JD. judyt
BLAINE: This is called "rationalization," in the old psychology textbooks, isn't it, Judy? It seems to be a device used to insulate the ego against having to face the truth about oneself. No wonder you think the KJV is inspired -- it may be the only translation that translates the Hebrew word (qadesh) "sodomites." Such is not the case in the New KJV, NIV, NASV -- probably the RSV. The reason? Because "qadesh" actually references the act of sodomy AND prostitution in pagan religious services. The translation "sodomite" is much to limiting as a translation.

Go ahead try to find anything against perverts in that book.
