This may have already been asked...it seems like it might have been, from
the various back-references to a book by Boswell and comments made in
relation to it - but since I missed the initial articles about the book,
I will ask anyway...

What *is* the position of the homosexual community on the Scriptural
view of homosexuality?  I suppose the relevant references would be
Lev 18:22, 20:13, Deut 23:17, II Kings 23:7, I Cor 6:9, I Tim 1:10.

If this was discussed already, someone please mail me the discussion
(I started reading the net approx. 6/23).  If not, could someone fill
me in?  (perhaps net.religion would be a more appropriate place).
