Homosexuality as abnormal as left-handedness?

Peter, Thanks, a very helpful summary of the discussion so far.

I have several comments.

In his post on Homosexuality and the new creation Andrew says "homosexuality is an inescapable element in fallen humanity - whether we explain it biologically or culturally". I do not think it is at all obvious what is part of the fallen humanity and hence what is to be renewed in the new heaven and the new earth. Is left handedness, having a squint or proneness to baldness part of fallen humanity? What about planetary wobble or tsunamis or exploding suns? I ask this because, in my view, homosexuality has the same degree of abnormality as left-handedness.

Secondly, if I understand you aright, your concluding remarks suggest that Paul in Romans 1 and the early bit of 2 is leading up to a polemic against being judgemental. That is an interesting view of the text but even if valid leaves homosexuality swinging in the wind as a sin. I have no trouble accepting all the rest of what Paul refers to as sin but not homosexuality, so we seem to be no further advanced
