ellauri072.html on line 209: Nowhere else in Hell, after Limbo, do we hear such affection expressed for damned souls. And, given the fact that these are sodomites, Dante's desire to embrace them has a strange reverberation.
ellauri072.html on line 216: As we see in Inferno 15-16, in Hell Dante damns sodomites as sinners of violence against nature. Nonetheless, even in his Hell, where Dante does not go so far as to include homosexuals as unrepentant lustful in the second circle, he still desexualizes his treatment of sodomy. What do we learn from all this? Yet the fact that here, as in Purg. 26, he chooses to put homosexuals in a good light when there was no apparent compelling reason for him to do so surely should cause us to ask further questions about Dante's views concerning homosexuality. Varmaan se oli homo izekin, Beatrice or no Beatrice. Sixkai sille riitti vaan ulista siitä Beatricesta. Satis enim dictum erat de tam obscena et tam spurca materia.

And we need MEN like him today and NOT that COMMIE Sodomite Rag Head Zebera occupying OUR White House today!
ellauri111.html on line 488: The Lord Jesus Christ came to save you from both the GUILT and POWER of sin. The Lord Jesus Christ was manifested TO DESTROY the works of the devil (I John 3:8)--THE LORD JESUS CHRIST CAME TO SAVE YOU AND CHANGE YOU AND TO MAKE YOU HOLY. When you are unsaved, sin has dominion over you. Sin is your boss and you cannot do anything BUT sin. You are justly under the wrath of a holy and just God. Murderers, thieves, fornicators, witches, sodomites, whores, liars, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God, rebels, and all other spiritual lepers will not inherit the kingdom of God. This is not to put anybody down, before we got saved, we Christians were once the murders, thieves, whoremongers, etc. We have to be born again into the kingdom of God. When we REPENT and BELIEVE in Jesus, we are born again and all things become new. A new life emerges and things change. We start reading the Bible and obeying it and the Lord Jesus helps us obey it more and more. Our life changes. Our desires literally change as we go forward in obeying the word of God.
ellauri151.html on line 134: In his journal, Gide distinguishes between adult-attracted "sodomites" and boy-loving "pederasts", categorizing himself as the latter.
ellauri151.html on line 136: I call a pederast the man who, as the word indicates, falls in love with young boys. I call a sodomite ("The word is sodomite, sir," said Verlaine to the judge who asked him if it were true that he was a sodomist) the man whose desire is addressed to mature men. […] The pederasts, of whom I am one (why cannot I say this quite simply, without your immediately claiming to see a brag in my confession?), are much rarer, and the sodomites much more numerous, than I first thought. […] That such loves can spring up, that such relationships can be formed, it is not enough for me to say that this is natural; I maintain that it is good; each of the two finds exaltation, protection, a challenge in them; and I wonder whether it is for the youth or the elder man that they are more profitable.
ellauri184.html on line 357: Second, the fact that it is a theological issue does not prevent it from being a moral one as well. The behavior is sin. “Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not deceived. Neither formicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God” (1 Cor. 6:9-10 ). The word translated “homosexuals” here strictly refers to catamites — the word has the connotation of soft. We would say swish. The other word sodomite refers to the “male” homosexual, the one playing the role of the male. All the ingenuity in the world cannot change what the Bible bluntly states here. As well, consider 1 Tim. 1:10 . “. . . for fornicators, for sodomites . . . and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine.” The Old Testament speaks to this as well. See Deut. 23:17-18 , Job 36:14 , Lev. 18:22 . Those guilty of such things are living in a contemptible way, and the Scripture calls them dogs. Poor dogs.
ellauri184.html on line 361: Fourth, the problem is not just to be addressed through a Christian understanding, applied to private lives. Homosexuality is a public problem in the public square, and repentance will bring with it an understanding of the necessity of public reformation. When Josiah cleansed the land, he shut down the sodomite houses near or in the house of the Lord. “Then he tore down the ritual booths of the perverted persons that were in the house of the Lord . . .” (2 Kings 23:7 ; cf. 1 Kings 14:24 ,15:12 ,22:46 ). Unless it results in the bath houses closing, it will not have been a real reformation
ellauri184.html on line 364: When God is pleased to grant reformation and revival in our time, this will mean that our churches will begin to fill up with cleansed and forgiven sodomites. Can't say for sure about the catamites, thery're so swishy.

xxx/ellauri127.html on line 778: Cockney poet Keats was compared to Milton who lived and worked at London's Mermaid Tavern. Coincidentally, his father, Thomas worked as a barman in London's Hoop and Swan Pub until passing in 1804. It is clear John Keats is making a universal statement about poets and the message is associated to lively pub life and drink. The phrase, "new old sign," indicates he recognizes similarities between himself and Milton. Milton vanha kuu pois pyllisti, uusvanha nousee tilalle. Was he a sodomite like Little John? Was he also one of the men in tights?
