There was a guy named Weldon that made the allegations 25 years after the king's death, but his writings show extreme bias against the Scottish people in general, considering them all to be fornicators and homosexuals. Some of the allegations center around certain letters that were written that seemed too affectionate. On the basis of this kind of evidence, it could be argued that Jesus was a homosexual because John laid his head on the chest of Christ during the last supper. I personally believe that the rumor that King James was a homosexual to be false gossip. One thing we do know is that King James took a keen interest in theology. He was well educated in various languages such as French, Latin, Greek, etc. He was not at all like our modern politicians in regards to intellectual ability in theology. He responded to the suggestion of a new version by the Puritan John Reynolds because he did not appreciate the theological slant of the notes in the Geneva Bible. It seems to me from some of John's comments that he might be confusing King James I with the earlier King Henry VIII. Peace be with you.
