I can't understand why the church leaders are missing this one. They could get major credibility if they start accepting these people before the liberals get their hands on this topic.
The first gentile convert to Christianity was a black Ethiopian Lady boy. The verse in Isaiah 53 was used and almost has sexual undertones 'being led like lamb to the slaughter". I think the guy who converted him had sexual relations as a "bottom" or "sheep" 9or is it lamb, there about the same thing, right?)
I think it's quite possible the early Christians were mostly homosexual. The book of Philemon is like a gay love letter about Paul making Onomeus useful in prison. Why do you have a slave while you are in prison? Wasn't slave synonymous with prostitute in those days? Wasn't homosexuality common where Paul came from.
