I was taught that it is-- but how "sodomy" is defined by the Bible and by Merriam-Webster aren't in complete agreement. Hence, my earlier question.

Using the concept, "let scripture interpret scripture", Romans the 1 chapter makes it very clear that men with men and women with women is sinful and is the result of rebellion against God.

Strawman argument.

The Bible is VERY specific about sexual sins, and yet the specific things you mention - the Bible does NOT mention. In fact, the Bible says the marriage bed is undefiled.

So, I'm just curious - are you supporting your ideas with scripture, or just personal preference and opinion?

The Amplified Version-- why the added words? How did they come up with that translation? I am familiar with the A V, not sure about the history of it.
I posted that support some believe the scripture is saying keep the bed undefiled. I'll try to get some more info to share with you.

Why is there one act so many ask if ok? If natural and normal, why does the conscience make people wonder about it?

Lol, I won't get into this argument with you, because as 1399 has already said repeatedly, you aren't even answering the question of what sodomy really is.

Define sodomy Biblically.

I believe it's ok, but I know what I've been taught.

What I have been trying to do is use the Bible to settle long standing questions in my mind.
