There's also prohibitions on adultery. The evidence for temple prostitution contemporary with the issue of the Torah is specious. There is still zero context regarding Temple prostitution in that scritpture and the original word used for male prostitute during that time had a much broader meaning than you realize. sodomy was the original word used in the English translations which included any unnatural sexual act of which homosexual sex was included. The use of the word homosexuality in the late 19th century was indeed pedantic because it limited the idea of sodomy but that idea was certainly not invented in the 19th century. That is a bold face lie.
Your insistence that Temple prostitution was common among the people of the middle and Far East is simply debunked in an epic takedown by Stephanie Budin,*in The Myth of Sacred Prostitution in Antiquity. An excellent summary of that work is posted here
Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2009.04.28.
In 3000 years there was consistency in terms of forbidden sexual behavior among the Jewish race, and then, all the sudden in 1955 someone comes along and reinterprets the language used during that time to say something that the original writers and subsequent translations over thousands of years never indicated. Spare us all the revisionist history lessons based on your politically correct views.
