“NO sin in the world grips the soul as the accursed sodomy; this sin has always been detested by all those who live according to God. Deviant passion is close to madness; this vice disturbs the intellect . . . this is the greatest sin.”

St. Bernardine of Siena: “NO sin in the world grips the soul as the accursed sodomy; this sin has always been detested by all those who live according to God; this vice disturbs the intellect . . . this is the greatest sin: men sticking their dicks up each other’s asses!! So every time a man sticks his dick up MY ass, it’s not man to man and therefore NOT the accursed sodomy!!!”
The most terrible sin committed by those in Sodom was being uncivilised.
The fact you’re so obsessed that Freud would have a field day with you is the least of your problems, Laura Woodn’t .
You clearly haven’t cracked open that Bible of yours.
As one of the greats of Sci-Fi Isaac Asimov said, ‘Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for Atheism ever conceived’.
Guess who have read that BuyBull of yours to know that you know less than nothing of your own God’s ‘Word’ to have any idea of what it actually means.
““NO sin in the world grips the soul as the accursed sodomy;”
Sodomy includes heterosexual blowjobs. Fingering. Handjobs. Cunning Linguists. I’ve never felt any guilt about doing, requesting, receiving sodomic pleasures.
Why, uh, why would I?
"this sin has always been detested by all those who live according to God.”
So, no one gets hurt. Why isn’t murder more detested? Or puns? Or atheism?
"Deviant passion is close to madness;”
Close, huh? Gotta admit, I could therefore use a little madness from time to time.
"this vice disturbs the intellect . . .”
Well, i can’t always form full sentences during or immediately after, but in my experience, the intellect is pretty well focused. Not disturbed.
“this is the greatest sin.”
Murder, genocide, causing a woman to die so her baby can’t live, either, many seem greater.
Maybe you’re just not doing it right? Or brushing your teeth after? Gotta brush your teeth.
I don’t know… murder, rape, slavery, betrayal, and child abuse are all sins that seem to bother most people more than they do people like you and homosexuality a whole lot less.
Then again you seem unbothered by most of those things entirely if they can further your “moral” goals.
Really, Laura? I would have thought murder was worse, or maybe torturing or raping anyone, especially children. What consenting adults do should be nobody’s business.
Also bigot, I think it’s more of a sin that in medieval times sodomites used to be burned at the stake - which is the origin of the expression faggots.

His preaching, his book burnings, and his "bonfires of the vanities" established his reputation in his own lifetime; they were frequently directed against gambling, infanticide, sorcery/witchcraft, sodomy (male homosexuality), Jews, Gypsies, usury, and the like.
Lovely guy, sounds like he’s right up the alley of the modern-day fundiest of the fundies!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
