Just because some people use the scripture justify their own lusts does not mean it is actually taught in the scripture.
If I say, "don't touch that red cup" and you tell people "touch that red cup because he (genkaus) said so" then you are lying and not justifying your action based on my statement.
The church, on the other hand, did justify it using the scripture. That means, the scripture did say "touch that red cup".
