And so what if a few existed in the morally rotten Roman Empire?
No contradiction here, cause Faith says so.

The whole point is you are talking about very rare events in abnormal cultures and I was referring to the vast majority of human cultures in all times and places.
As the church lady on Saturday Night Live said "aren't we special."
It's your abnormal culture as it is mine. Are you actually asserting Western Civilization is not a descendent of Greece and Rome?
Point out a direct counterexample to "NO CULTURE EVER even considered gay marriage" and what is the response? Simply call the culture which had so much influence over early Christianity and in fact made it their state religion "debased." Other cultures have what is essentially gay marriage? No problem, simply say it is not the equivalent of marriage. Point out you contradict yourself, no problem, oh look at the kitty.
You may think you are clever by moving the goalposts, deciding you are the arbiter of English language instead of the Oxford English Dictionary, and have elected yourself to speak for all cultures for all time, but all of us with experience know the truth about your transparent tactics.

I already know your response, if there is one at all. It will be denial accompanied by a pathological insistence you are never wrong about anything, just as in the case of Martin Luther's blatant and historically verified antisemitism.
I must be a prophet as I can predict the future.
