His basic premise is that early leaders didn't renounce homosexuality when they encountered it and therefore countenanced. Weak sauce.
From what I've read on the subject, it wasn't until late 20th century that the statistical prevalence of the activity was even understood. One of the well-researched works I read showed that prior to 20th Century, a typical citizen didn't even create a separate category of "sexuality" per se.
