There is a Greek word that means something like 'man bedder' where 'bed' can have sexual connotations. It is translated 'abusers of themselves with mankind' in the KJV. One version of the NIV translates as 'homosexuals.'
Many years ago, I recall reading that the Greek word was found in the New Testament and that it showed up on a piece of Greek pottery. Years later, after the World Wide Web had developed, I looked it up and there was (yuck!) piece of pottery with two men with one of them doing something with his mouth as I recall.. something along those lines.
Some time back, I looked up the Greek word and 'pottery' and I can't find it anywhere.
The Internet now has lots of pages. Google search isn't really any much good anymore like it used to be. For many topics we get ads or whatever junk SEO experts drive to the top.
Since arguing that there is no clear evidence for what arsenokoitai and malakos means is part of the LGBT apologetic for their types of sexual perversion when it comes to the Bible, I do kind of wonder if the fact that the bit of archeological evidence doesn't fit the LGBT narrative and search engines tend to be run by left-wingers has something to do with it. Or it could be that it gets lost in the Internet, that search engines started filtering out perverse images in certain types of searches (like no one searches for porn online), or that the post I read about this years ago was wrong and the pottery was just made-up. It was a few decades back when I read this, and probably a decade later when I saw the pottery.
Does anyone else know anything about this? |

'Gay' Pottery as Evidence for Arsenokoitai?
