Why Judaism rejected homosexuality

In my opinion, Judaism rejected homosexuality back in the day when Jewish women were not stereotyped as women that never let the man get the last word, so to speak. In other words, it might be easier, as a male, to be heterosexual, when one doesn't see their home life dominated by an aging Jewish Princess and her coterie of never stop talking women relatives? Just my opinion. Not that there aren't Jewish females that know when to stop talking; however, they may be on the very right side of the charm bellcurve. It is my opinion, that many Jewish women do give credence to the stereotype of being know it alls, on all manner of topics, because if one doesn't feel "lovable," one then might decide that to get what one wants out of life, one must have "command"? Again in my opinion, Jewish women are the worst critics of their looks. So, if one's nose had to be "fixed," or one's hair was straightened, or one feels too short, or too heavy, or just doesn't think they would ever fit in to an LL Bean catalog, then it might be easy to get mad at the world, and react with an overbearing persona?

Why did Judaism reject Catholicism? (Or was it Catholicism that rejected judaism).

It's nice to know that women didn't enjoy sex at all until marriage came along.

How were they making babies without a man?

But you didn't answer my question.

Simple facts, read the Bible. Learn from the ancient Hebrews.

Sorry. I have learned more valuable knowledge from modern Jewish New Yorkers. Instead of the bible, I would recommend some Woody Allen movies and reruns of Seinfeld.

Based on the very high rate of inter-religious marriage between Catholics and Jews, I'd say that neither rejects the other today to any great extent. If they do, it has had little effect on sexual activity or marriage between the two religious groups.

You know, this Judeo-centric point of view long dominated history and archaeology, too. Archaeologists assumed (abetted by historians) that all great developments in civilization originated in the middle east--all the while ignoring the very existence of China. In the last 50 or 60 years, increased attention both on new archaeological exploration in Europe and the re-evaluation of archaeological finds already catalogued have revealed that, for example, copper and bronze were smelted in the Balkans before being smelted in the middle east. Very rich and complicated systems of marking are now considered to have been writing, but writing we cannot decipher because the languages are lost. The same thing applies to Linear A in Crete, where there are no inscriptions which can connect it to other, known languages as is the case with Linear B. Some contemporary paleoanthropologists even believe that Linear A and B may have derived from marking systems already in use in western and central Europe before Minoan civilization arose.

The assumption for more than a century was that all civilization arose in the middle east, and for no better reason than adherence to the Judeo-christian tradition.
