While this is of course informative and "factual" as far as what the Bible really says, I would point out that the real Christee Crazees will tell you if you argue too much that this is all Old Testament stuff and Christians are bound by the New Testament.
As much as I can't stand Dr. Laura, I don't think she ever claimed to be a theologian. What bothers me is the REAL theologians who know better don't come clean. Like the bit about the two fibers and two crops. Or the real fact that an abomination meant a ritual impurity NOT a mortal sin. Anway, nobody follows ALL this stuff anymore, not even Orthodox Jews unless they are SUPER DUPER conservative and they are getting pretty rare these days.
A very good book for those interested is "What the Bible REALLY says about Homosexuality", I forget the author's name just now but he is or was a Catholic priest. The only point in the whole book I may have a difference with him is with the Sodom story. If one thinks about today, how you usually know your neighbors, if you live in a stable neighborhood; most people would notice a neighbor constantly having strangers over. That is what Lot did, and he himself was an outsider. A parallel might be an Arabic family, in native dress, speaking arabic in an all White neighborhood having lots of out of town guests would attract attention. So the townsmen wanted to KNOW (not in a sexual sense in my view, and statistically in the Bible "know" meant sex only a few times out of hundreds) what was going on at Lot's house. And of course since protecting males from harm, even though they were strangers was much more important than your own daughters, Lot offered them sexually to distract the Townspeople. So it wasn't even a homosexual story at all.
