The physical anatomy of men and women were designed by God to procreate and "Go forth and multiply." God condemned sodomy in all the scriptures as being an unnatural act.

Sodomy is considered a sin in many religious traditions because it is seen as a violation of natural law or divine order. Some interpretations of religious texts view it as a deviation from the intended purpose of sexual relations. It is important to note that perspectives on sodomy and other sexual behaviors vary across different cultures and belief systems.

According to Judaeo-Christian teaching is Sodomy a sin?

Sodomy is by definition a sin as it is the sin for which the city of Sodom was destroyed by God in the Old Testament. However... (you knew that there would be a however didn't you) there are some problems defining exactly what sodomy is!To the writer of above- Sodom was not destroyed for the sin of sodomy. The bible clearly tells us why it was destroyed: Ezekiel 16:49-50: "Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had arrogance, abundant food, and careless ease, but she did not help the poor and needy. Thus they were haughty and committed abominations before Me.[8] Therefore I removed them when I saw it."By definition Sodom was destroyed for the sin of Sodomy these are the abominations that they committed, it may be as Ezekiel suggests that they were a lack of charity or perhaps as some scholars have suggested a failure of hospitality the Bible is unclear on the subject.Warning sexually explicit answerUnder US law sodomy encompasses both anal and oral sexual intercourse between both homosexual and heterosexual couples as well as bestiality. Under the Common Law it encompassed only anal sex (although it was not restricted to homosexuals). Canon Law (the law of the Church) has usually equated sodomy with homosexuality.There are some Biblical scholars who have suggested that the sin of Sodom was actually a breach of hospitality an offence with very serious implications in the Semitic culture to this day.On the broader issue as to the sinful nature of any of the above acts that is a matter of conscience. Provided they take place within a consenting, loving and stable relationship I suspect God doesn't mind.I think God is not nearly as interested in what we do in our bedrooms as he is in what is in our hearts.
