Awesome! !!! I was listening to NPR & The Diane Rehm Show when Diane made the announcement. She dedicated the second hour of her show to DOMA ruling & prop hate-oops, I mean 8! I did a little celebration dance in my car, people on the road probably thought I was on something, lol!
No, Sodomite is translated in the KJV from the Hebrew word for a temple prostitute. Stop displaying your profound ignorance.
Seeing as Sodom was a city, and the sexual deviance was on full display knowingly men on men, women on women, leaving the natural use of themselves, i believe your position is one of selective ignorance.
There was no temple around when Lot was protecting his sons and offering his daughters in place of them, to the Sodomites that surrounded his house.
But the issue isnt a biological discussion, its a legal one.
As an unmarried male, I have two children, neither one of them have mothers on their birth certificiate.
Congratulations. Why would kids need a mother (or a father) after all? Maybe Plato was right after all about taking kids out of dysfunctional situations -- some of the posters in this thread would certainly add fuel to his argument.

I think you're mixing up your anti-gay stories, seeing as the story about Sodom says nothing about what you just posted. Lesbians are NEVER mentioned in the Hebrew Bible.

Those men were not called Sodomites. Sodom was destroyed for inhospitality. The Bible specifically tells you that, and has been the meaning for thousands of years.
What I don't understand is how Scalia tried to make the claim the majority ASSUMED that the motive of the DOMA was to inflict injury.
They didn't "assume". When the bill was being presented, the house judiciary commitee stated that purpose of it was to "reflect and honor a collective moral judgment and to express moral disapproval of homosexuality". I guess that's not saying "we want to harm Homosexuals by denying them the same rights as heterosexuals" directly, but it might as well.
