Before condemning an entire demographic of the population to eternal punishment and damnation, perhaps we should explore what the Bible has to say on the subject. With only six references to homosexuality in the entire cannon, Scott explores the historical context of homosexuality in the ancient world and what these scriptures were actually talking about. This episode is rated mature. In order to understand homosexuality in the ancient world, we need to use some explicit terms to better define what it was and what it was not.
