In other words, whatever in the Bible runs counter to socialist humanist 'public policy' trends is just a temporary accomodation to 'fallen aspects of first century culture'.

You watch. Greg Boyd will come out in favor of gays. It's just a matter of time. Either him, or his immediate successors.

Do you mean that eventually he will say that homosexuality is not a sin?

He is not an complementarian but an egalitarian when it comes to the place of the woman and man in the church and in marriage. You're drawing conclusions that are not there or anywhere.
