  tribe who promoted heterosexuality in order to replace the soldiers killed in its wars
  of aggression.
  d. such teachings must be interpreted in their historical and cultural context.
  e. Biblical teachings are relevant only for strictly religious and devotional areas of faith,
  not for the guidance of human conduct.
