Was King James a homosexual?
That's a pretty common accusation from proponents of the King James Bible in order to discredit its authenticity.
They'll often claim that he had homosexual tendencies and that he was responsible for homoerotic literature.
But when you research this, you find nothing.
No evidence to adequately substantiate these claims.
And in fact, a lot of these rumors began 25 years after his death when a man by the name of Sir Anthony Walden wrote a manuscript entitled,
the court and character of King James.
Where he defames the late king, some would say because of his dismissal from the royal courts.
But even if this was true and he was a homosexual, it would actually have no bearing on the translation of the Bible since he simply authorized it.
However, a general analysis of his letter written to his son entitled,
Facilico dorona, King's Gift, we see otherwise.
He instructs his son to his chew to be feminine.
He says that marriage is one of the greatest actions that a man does all his time.
He also states that there are some horrible crimes that are bound in conscience never to forgive such as witchcraft, willful murder, incest and sodomy.
My man.
