[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all, Greece was not a tiny country. This is what we are talking about: http://www.gods-word-first.org/Images/greek-empire-map.gif Second, homosexuality was openly permitted in ancient rome. That's pretty much all of western civilization at the time: http://www.hyperhistory.com/online_n2/images_n2/roman_emp.gif For a more global perspective:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality_in_ancient_Rome For a perspective in the animal kingdom: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexual_behavior_in_animals So basically homosexuality is everywhere.[/quote] Rome does not equal Roman Empire; same with Greeks. Those conquered territories maintained their own religions and customs. I don't know what their position was on homosexuality, but it's incorrect to assume that it was widely accepted throughout the empires just because it was accepted in Rome and Athens.[/quote]
