Abomination

An abomination is anything associated with the worship of false gods or any activity that perverts the way God intended human beings to live and behave. A list of such behaviors may be found in Leviticus 18. According to the Bible, such evil occurred in Sodom and Gomorrah so God sent the Great Flood as punishment.
The vagueness of its definition, combined with debates over its validity as a legal argument in United States law (considering the laws would equally apply to non-Christians) has led to numerous problems in recent years[1][2][3][4][5]. Specifically, Lawrence v. Texas suggests that the era of subjective morality-based legislation is at an end.[6]
