    You might want to look up the sexuality of the King James behind the New King James Version.

      Why? It changes nothing. The Bible is against homosexuality and it is one of the few things it is consistent on. Who cares that some King who wanted a different translation was bisexual? It won’t make the text not say what it says.

      You know it wasn’t even the first English language translation of the thing?

        I’m well aware of the history. It’s a garbage translation, and the passages quoted above are one of the things that make it garbage.
