[quote=Calgaryborn;638647]It is an english word. Who are you to say I can't use it. Are you arguing that because a couple of translations I don't adhere to uses an english word that some scholar thinks is too broad for the passage that somehow my faith is in jeopardy? Read Romans Chapter one. What it describes is homosexuality. "Men giving up the natural use of a woman and being inflamed with lust for one another and the women likewise..." does God need to draw you a picture? How can that not be clear to you?[/quote]

I personally think it's pretty clear but not everyone believes in the bible and so using scripture isn't exactly going to change their mind on where they stand on the issue or help them understand where you are coming from.
