2) It is unclear whether Robinson argues for the homosexual rape thesis |

"This is not a story about two men who fall in love and pledge themselves to a monogamous, faithful, lifelong intentioned relationship. This is about homosexual rape. No one is arguing for homosexual rape—or any kind of rape—because it is an act of violence." |

"Within the scriptures themselves, homosexual rape is not the right interpretation of Sodom and Gomorrah—yet those who argue against homosexuality keep using it." ] (]) 16:11, 30 July 2022 (UTC) |

As other editors have pointed out, some of the material you added doesn't meet our standards for ] - if you look at what else is cited in the article, we rely on a lot more books and journals than news and blogs. (Er, not entirely, it looks like we could do some cleanup - the Edmonds source is not good, although it reflects common interpretations that it should be easy to find a better source for.) After all, so much has been written about the Bible over the centuries that we can afford to limit ourselves to scholarly work! If there's content that you are interested in changing, I would suggest looking in Google Books and JSTOR for material from scholarly presses. |

I'll also note though that Leviticus was written in Hebrew and the ''arsenokoitai'' issue is with the Greek books. There are some translation questions with Leviticus all the same, but it's not an issue of having to guess what the original was and whether it really meant "male"; we know what the original was. –] (] ⋅ ]) 21:03, 14 July 2020 (UTC) |

:I've reverted this addition. Please 1. review the sources you're citing - there is no serious argument about whether or not "arsenokoitai" appears in Leviticus because Leviticus was written in Hebrew, not Greek, and 2. consider looking for the topics you're interested in in better sources - such as the question of why the word translated as "mankind" isn't ''ish''. –] (] ⋅ ]) 03:35, 15 July 2020 (UTC) |

"The author, Janet Edmonds, is a longtime member of Bethesda United Methodist Church in Bethesda, Maryland. Currently, the official policy of the United Methodist Church does not allow self-avowed practicing homosexuals to be ordained ministers, nor does it allow United Methodist clergy to officiate at same-sex marriage ceremonies or to hold these ceremonies in United Methodist churches. In addition, The United Methodist Book of Discipline currently states that, “The practice of homosexuality is incompatible with Christian teaching.” Janet wrote this booklet in September 2016 to help people understand that the Bible doesn’t say that homosexuality is a sin and with the hope of someday changing these United Methodist rules. As Christians, we are asked to seek justice. It is the author’s hope that this booklet will help to bring justice for LGBTQ individuals who have been condemned far too long." |
