Homophobia is a billion dollar business for Corporate Christianity. Isn’t it?

Do most men prefer curvy women or skinny women?

Scholars and translators know this. The Greek translation of Arsenokoitace is uncertain. The word was coined by Paul (probably) or a contemporary of his. Any person who says they know exactly what Paul meant is lying (seriously).
