#1 So now the fruitcakes want us to rewrite the bible to suit their needs?

That may be going to far.

#2 Pretty clearly it says "sodomoites" or "homosexuals" in almost every reliable translation.

The Doay-Rheims version, one of the fiurst complete english translations has it this way:

10 Nor the effeminate, nor liers with men, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners, shall possess the kingdom of God.

Pretty obvious as to the meaning from almost 500 years ago. The latin vulgate, 1500+ years old says...

neque molles neque masculorum concubitores neque fures neque avari neque ebriosi neque maledici neque rapaces regnum Dei possidebunt

Thats males who sleep with other males as concubines.

The thing is, all you have to do is stop doing tht and ask God to forgive. Its in the next verse:

And such some of you were. But you are washed: but you are sanctified: but you are justified: in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and the Spirit of our God.

Typical of the homosexual activists to try to force their immorality on others via abuse of the courts.

My question is why did the court not simply throw this completely out and fine the idiot for wasting the time and resources of the court system?

The real issue here is they guy wants to FORCE others to accept his deviance as normal.

Sorry, doesnt work that way. Im not going to hate you for being a homosexual, but I am also nto goign to endorse your behavior and evil acts. I'm going to destest the sin you commit, and lament your oblviousness to the damage you are doing to your soul and pray for you to repent and convert -- and Im going to stand up for my beliefs in the process.

No I will NOT rewrite my Bible to suit your pervesions and hurt feelings.
