They typically argue that Lev 18 and related texts and Rm 1 only condemn homosex as part of idolatry due to the cultural contrast these occur in. However, this is also the case with the 10 commandments as well as the giving of much moral legislation or exhortation elsewhere. Thus the effect of the prohomosexual hermeneutic is to allow the negation of most any moral command.

“Thus the effect of the prohomosexual hermeneutic is to allow the negation of most any moral command.”

That’s their true goal. In the end, it’s about replacing the church with the all-powerful state.

That criticism (only condemn homosex as part of idolatry due to the cultural contrast these occur in) is so weak that it is not even reasonable. I dismiss it completely.
