Ive never considered that. Seems like there'd be some remnant of a legend surrounding it if that were the case
No evidence of which I am aware. Just an intriguing notion.
Maybe the ongoing excavations in Samaria will give us some useful clues.

I also consider the possibility that the Samaritans are CORRECT in asserting that theirs is the more-original form of the Abrahamic religion, in that their Torah reflects the document as it existed BEFORE the Judean hostages were taken to Babylon and revised their Scriptures with the Priestly sources.
It would have been easy for the Jerusalem version of the sect to prevail, given that it had the support of the Persians.
I've never read any scholarship to the effect, but it is an intriguing notion.
One weekend, I would like to sit down with both the Samaritan and Judaic versions and look at the differences.

Whether or not all sin is equivalent is irrelevant, all sin can be forgiven except one and we could debate from here to eternity what blasphemy truly means.

You are preaching to the choir. I agree

1946????? That is not a Bible date, sorry.

it is self evident that homosexuality is wrong. no one needs it explained. the a-hole is not a sex organ.

The left doing what the left does.
Making up lies. Keep repeating them until you have a generation of people who have been raised hearing the lie. Then attack anyone who challenges the lie and bully them to repeat it.
ETA. Just like they have a generation of people who think the Republican Party is responsible for enslaving black people.

Another interesting discussion. Thanks.

Fun fact. Leviticus also forbids wearing blended suits and eating catfish.
Not denying the NT texts on the issue. But I wouldn’t think any of us really want to use the Old Testament as a moral compass.

they way I understand the Catholic faith of this is that somebody can be gay...that's not a problem. However acting on that urge to fornicate is what is wrong.
Two gays can live together as brothers and/or sisters but can fornicate because the act of procreation cannot be completed and it's a sin to fornicate outside of marriage...which is not allowed in the Catholic faith as it is between a man and a woman (multiple places in the Bible)

I couldn't care less who someone wants to shake the sheets with. Move on. It's the trans community that are vile and trying to push their pedophilic agenda on everyone. And I don't need the Bible to make them disgusting. They are an offense to nature and and mankind.

Fun fact. Homosexual activity is also called an abomination in the New Testament. As Christians, we rely upon both to guide us.
Another poster in this thread explained it well (Foo, Rev, or RCD, I believe).

I’d rather err on the side of caution than take that chance

IIRC, It's Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.

Leviticus is not the only place in the Old Testament where homosexuality is condemed. The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in the book of Genesis makes the case pretty clear.

I’ll recant (and I guess apologize) for the tone of my prior post. It seems like maybe you did read the whole thing. But it also seemed like you ignored my acknowledgment of the New Testament texts on the issue.
Here‘s the deal. We pick and choose the parts of the Old Testament we want to follow. There is stuff in there we’d get mad about if it was written by modern authors and put in our school libraries. And, I know a lot of it is a chronicle of judeo-(pre)Christian record. But there are a whole lot of rules in the Old Testament that we ignore (not the infant penis modification part, of course)
Like you said, it is a guide. But only as to the parts that we want to guide us.
