This may not be altogether encouraging: there's an activity called "wenching" that young men often seek out together. I'm sure readers will recall seeing
hen parties. and
stag nights. for example and, when unsaved wretches ourselves, may even have taken part in one or the other. Or both, but in different capacities.
HILKIAH
Hilkiah was strong for The LORD and very keen to stamp out bad habits. Among such the burning of incense is almost universal, as are wall charts of astrology, oriental erogenous pressure-points done on a body map, sunburst wallhangings, celebrations of the moon at midnight preceded by 3 hours of Stockhausen, you name it – the sky's the limit. These are not new and when God saw what was going on it was through Hilkiah that He cated. Astrologists want us to worship all the host of heaven, to adore their galaxies and nebulć, allowing their planets to rule our lives together with the sun and moon as though they were gods themselves. Woven décor states this intention blatantly hanging in their shops with the magic crystals and goblin statues so beloved of sodomites. The Bible describes all this so we know it's not new. Hilkiah saw what was going on and destroyed the whole shebang.
II KINGS 23:7
And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove.

God is very clear on the topic of sodomy. People who think up a different value system for themselves, one in which sodomy is acceptable, cannot claim to be following God. I know that some people
do. claim this but either they've never read The Bible or are lying about what's in it.
We do know that adventurers set off looking for excitement NOT involving sodomy and not all of these are particularly deserving of death beyond the sinful condition of our birth. Judah, for example, seems to have had the odd adventure but God blessed him even though others made wicked choices and were smitten. You can read about that in
Genesis 38.
So it may be premature to think the worst of your son (and his friend) under the circumstances. It is important to challenge those who challenge normality and to do so we need to be where those challengers are.
