It's buried within the 60 minute episode, and I couldn't find just the clip of that part. He had a really good answer. He said when the bible says a man shouldn't lay with another man, it doesn't mean it in the way we understand it today; as a committed, loving relationship. Damn it, he put it so much better than I can right now. Someone find that clip.
Looks up verse again:
Quote:Lev 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind
Maybe it's just clinical instructions on the mechanics, that it just means don't have sex with a man the same was as you would with a woman, for he has no pussy. Turn him around first...
The bible usually uses the word, know as a synonym for having sex so obviously the verse is not talking about sex, at all. The verse means that men should not be dishonest with each other but it okay to lie to your wife.
