Since Paul is who most homophobes run to in order to support their case, I went to him first, there really isn’t much left.
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).
