Jato, that is true that you need to understand the context of the scripture but it is very clear in saying that men and women gave up natural relations for each other (male/female) for unatural ones with the same sex. ('In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another'). No matter what the reason, that very point is clear. In other words, very cut and dry. We already know God disapproves of orgies, etc because of the kind of love he expects to take place between a man and woman. Hence, all of the scriptures that discuss this relationship.

I can't speak on hermaphrodites because I know nothing about them or the subject. I never said they were damned either and they have a choice as to whether they want to partake in any sexually activity or not. If they chose not to, how are they damned? If they chose not to have relations with a female or a male (physically or emotionally) again, why would they be condemed?

Also, we have to remember that God is consistent through out time. He doesn't change as the times change. What wasn't acceptable in Rome, Corinth, Ehesas, etc. is still unacceptable today. Now this is just me talking w/out using scriptures but I don't believe God would create woman for man and openly accept same sex relationships.
