1 Corinthians 6:9 (New King James Version)
Copyright © 1982 by Thomas Nelson, Inc.
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals,[a] nor sodomites,
Footnotes:
[a] 1 Corinthians 6:9 That is, catamites
Now.... "what's a catomite" I thought ... and.... well as far as I can figure a Catomite is word with latin origins that means the younger partner in a pederastic relationship between two males. Now this strikes a particular discord with me ... That is, a Catomite refers exclusively to an act of pedophilia ... but more interestingly Paul condemns not the adult perpetrator in this text ... but the adolescent little boy!
So, if you can make sense of that morality then please explain it to me 'cause I need to know.
