6. Their definition of sodomy takes a wide stance

(See What I Did There in the title? If not, just Google "Larry Craig.&quot

To some Fundies, "sodomy" is any sex act that doesn't lead to pregnancy and procreation. More liberal Fundies just define it as "any sex act of which I do not personally approve."

Important Scientific Research Note: this is not restricted to Xian Fundies. I remember an interview with Souad Saleh - an Egyptian woman who's a college professor and expert in sharia law. Saleh is generally considered a Muslim liberal, mostly because she's an advocate for women's rights in Islam.

Yet even Saleh says Islam bans "dirty" sex acts. IIRC, her two examples of that were sex during the menstrual period and anal sex.

Having a 9-yr-old wife, on the other hand...
