Funny thing this thread should come up today. Someone said something last night and I went to www.dictionary.com and found out they are correct. Sodomy is more than just homosexuality in the truest definition. It is anal intercourse between persons of the same OR OPPOSITE SEX and oral copulation between persons of the same OR OPPOSITE SEX.
Hmmmmmmmm. Some people might have to rethink their sex life.
You should read the full range of biblical passages about the nature of "abomination" and what is defined as such...to paraphrase, 'men lying with men,' 'women given over to same,' 'men/women dressing as the opposite gender,' and much more.
It's about spiritual corruption, and yes, includes sodomy but it's not limited to mere physical acts -- the physical acts follow the corrupted man/woman, is the point and then the acts are defined in the bible as what they are.
But the key thing is that the bible points out (God does, as found in the bible) that what is abominable are acts that define a corrupted person. And those acts include sodomy and many other behaviors.
