Is there any mention of homosexuality in the New Testament?

Lots of references to sodomy I know. Give me about ten minutes and I'll dig up some passages.

Found some-

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 - "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes(sort of) nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God." (NIV).

Romans 1:26-27 - "Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion." (NIV)

1 Timothy 1:9-10: "Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine."

Needs this to explain-The original Greek word "arsenokoitai" was apparently created by Paul when he wrote 1 Corinthians about 55 CE. No record remains of any writer using the term before that time. The word is often translated in English versions of the Bible as "homosexual." That is, a men or women who is sexually attracted only to persons of the same sex.

Like, hand-sketch memories?

I am having this problem where letters are sometimes appearing to the right of the cursor instead of to the left when I use firefox. This problem doesn't seem to occur when I type in other programs like notepad, but if I try to type in firefox, it comes out like this:

Does anyone know what is causing this problem and how I can fix it?

Sounds like a bug. Have you uninstalled and reinstalled?

By the way, if you need to make holy water, all you have to do is take regular tap water and boil the hell out of it.

Sounds like ordinary memories.

i must say, as a Catholic, i found the holy water bits very funny...

Would David Ricardo have accepted outsourcing?

Merely restating an unanswered question.

Since it's a way to utilize somebody else's comparative advantage, this non-economist says: probably? There is a thread for that question though, namely Ask an Economist #3.

I don't want to bother them with my amateurish questions.

So long as the ball can be made to rotate and break the dried-ink seal a rollerball and if you are lucky a pump-style fountain-pen.

Basically excepting a fibre-tip and a non-pumping fountain-pen, they all have an outside chance. In practice the chance is slim.

Not sure whether I'm on the right track, but hard drives, when written to, don't entirely overwrite what was on them previously.

Forensic scientists will read the raw drive. They'll take the data that is currently on it and invert the phase and feed it back to cancel the current data out. This is a little like removing the vocals from a song to produce a karaoke version.

The remaining noise is then amplified and reconstructed.

a pencil .

I was going to say the same thing, but was too lazy.

What about a quill pen? Do those things have an expiration date? All you would need is more ink right?
