You said "just preach the word" and I pointed out the word uses sodomites...you said no to that word too.
Please quote me. I don't recall saying that we shouldn't use the word Sodomite. I may have mentioned that I wouldn't use it personally and given my reasoning as to why. But bro...that's a biblical term. Have at it. If the homosexual community can't take it, their beef's with the Bible not you. But if you're screaming words like "faggot" and "queer" from the pulpit, you're out of line.

I said, just about anything we say or do will be taken by someone as offensive.
Bro...stick to the Word. I see no serious issues with the terms:

Sodomites
Dogs
Perverts
Sinners
Reprobates

Maybe you could get away with the terms "Homosexuals" and "gays" because they have evolved into a near official term for people of their disposition.

I'm sure there are other terms. But bro, I really don't want my kids using words like "faggot" or "queer". Please don't make me have to discipline him and tell him that he can't trust the man of God to speak like a Christian.

Bro... we know the Bible speaks against head strong unsubmitted women. Would you use the term "b--ch" to describe them over the pulpit? It would be accurate. lol But it wouldn't be proper for a Christian to speak that way.

I'm just saying have some respect for the pulpit, your listeners, parents, the kids, and yourself. Use biblical terms or technical terms. It shows you have a message so important you're not willing to destroy it's impact by being personally offensive when you don't have to be. All I'm asking is that men of God be Christian in the pulpit. Sadly, some of you love your curse words so much, you can't see my point.
