This is not true.
The KJV bible was translated into English in 1611. One of the earliest English dictionaries was Noah Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language, written in 1828. The definition according the Webster is:
Sodomy -- A crime against nature.
Since all of the things I mentioned occur in nature... as does same sex activity, this definition is incorrect.
Then there is the Webster's New Universal Unabridged Dictionary, which was copy-written in 1983, which states:
Sodomy -- any sexual intercourse regarded as abnormal, as between persons of the same sex, especially males, or between a person an an animal.
This definition is subjective and incomplete. Abnormal needs to be defined and it only lists certain types of sexual activity it qualifies as abnormal.
Here are some links with the definition of sodomy:
From Wikipedia:
Sodomy /ˈsɒdəmi/ is any non-penile/vaginal copulation-like act, such as oral or anal sex, or sex between a person and an animal.
