"Distinguished"

@2600:6c56:6100:1c:640d:e495:5d26:b1e8: "Distinguished" is part of the guy's title, not an editorial opinion. I see what you're saying about it coming off as biased, but it's also unclear to me whether saying he is a "Professor of Religious Studies" is a misrepresentation or not. It also occurred to me that we could simply call him "of the University of North Carolina" but that of course would omit the department that he comes from, which may not be desirable. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 13:34, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

"saints"

I've reverted the change of heading to refer to David, Jonathan, Ruth, and Naomi as "saints", which is inappropriate on several levels and also obscures the content of the section. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 21:26, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

Center for American Progress interview with Gene Robinson

I thought about adding it to the Sodom article but decided against it: 1) The similar view of the Anglican Communion is already covered. 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." or for the inhospitality thesis "Within the scriptures themselves, homosexual rape is not the right interpretation of Sodom and Gomorrah—yet those who argue against homosexuality keep using it." 2A02:1810:BC04:4B00:A57A:AF0B:2B41:B90F (talk) 16:11, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
