I don't have a whole lot of musical experience, but I've been playing the clarinet for a couple years. Like Leonardo, my main musical talent is singing. I sang soprano in a school choir (which was actually very good) when I was in elementary school. I haven't been in any singing groups since, but I can still sing (though I'm a bass rather than a soprano now).

...Homo may also refer to:

?μο-, Greek prefix meaning "the same", opposite of "hetero-" (Greek ?τερο- )...

Heck, if you break the word down homo+sexual literally it simply says man sexual .... no inference to being gay at all. ...

There you go. In this context it has nothing to do with the word "man." It means "the same."

Exactly why I said the word has been given a perceived meaning "after" I posted all the references. Thanks for pointing out the obvious though .... now at least others don't have to guess.

Hey, that's my job! ;)

The way you worded the bit about "man sexual" or whatever, implied that you were choosing that meaning of the word rather than doing whatever you were trying to do.

So I sort of guessed...sort of. I was more confused than amused though. :)

Well, we can eat that now, so that isn't a problem. The practical reason for disallowing certain kinds of meat under the Mosaic law was probably because they didn't know how to cook it properly, so God, instead of giving them a Mosaic cookbook, prohibited it, which also served as a discipline and to set the Israelites apart from other nations.

The reason given in the Bible is that humankind had gone bad, so God wanted a fresh start. He used a natural event to deliver his judgement, but allowed Noah and his family, who were good, to be saved. That's what it says in the Bible, but whether that is literal or not, I can't say. Maybe that was the reason, maybe it wasn't, but I think God had some hand in it.

Well, I have to admit he had me fooled. I never thought I would debate my father on an internet forum, but now I have.
