I did not read the whole thing yet. Still drinking my first cup of (it causes cancer in California) coffee. It is a serious article, yet the following seemed humorous:

"What is clear, however, is that while condemnation of same-sex attraction is marginal to the Gospels and only an intermittent focus in the rest of the New Testament, early Christian church fathers were much more outspoken. In their writings there is a horror at any sort of sex, but in a few generations these views eased, in part due no doubt to practical concerns of recruiting converts."
