Legalise sodomy

Recent news have speculated that the Australian state of New South Wales may consider legalising same-sex marriages.

How do you feel about this?  Do you welcome such news?  Or does it fill you with dread?

Some of my other recent reading calls 'homosexuality' by a much stronger word - 'sodomy'.  Apparently, sodomy was considered as a social and religious evil for many centuries.  The Bible calls this kind of act as 'sin'.

However, homosexuality has been popularised through media, and people against this concept have been labled as 'homophobic'.  They have been considered as narrow-minded, and not inclusive in their thinking.

It seems that rejecting the act of sodomy has been equated with the rejection of the people who practice such behaviour.

Actually, the church has struggled, but seems to have understood that it is to love the people, but to reject the sin.  The sin is not to be practiced, but people can be forgiven.  Such is my understanding of where the church stands anyway.

What do you think?  Where would you stand in this debate?  Is homosexuality sodomy?  Why are more and more nations accepting of same-sex marriages if sodomy is bad?

Have we been tricked by the 'world's most successful brain-washing'?

How can we change our course if the present course is wrong?
