Believe me, there are a great many "new, revised, more accurate" translations floating about. Most have the very thinly veiled purpose of revising scripture to suit its audiences' desires.

Actually it was sex with children and animals that was the problem not homosexuality.

Gassy, you sound rather strident in your beliefs. None of them are verifiable, but believe what you will. You are a member of an organized religion, without the means to disprove or verify its teachings any more so than your average Christian is able to do so with his. You are flying on faith every bit as much as the Christians you seem to like to ridicule for exercising theirs.
Oh, and incidently, most Christians I know are entirely comfortable with the thought of life on other planets. Why wouldn't they be? Oh, nevermind; I think I know. Guys like you like to make these sorts of assumptions because it fuels your mental image of the backward Christian, totally discounting science and all of that. It helps you to laugh at them in your ignorance; your utter ignorance of what they believe and what drives those beliefs.

Then you wouldn't be opposed to the total deregulation of interplanetary exploration and travel.?
