Here are some biblical references for the homosexuality issue:
"You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female;
it is an abomination."
Leviticus 18:22 (NASB)
"If there is a man who lies with a male as those who
lie with a woman, both of them have committed a
destestable act;..."
Leviticus 20:13 (NASB)
"For this reason God gave them over to degrading
passions; for their women exchanged the natural function
for that which was unnatural, and in the same way
also the men abandoned the natural function of the women and
burned in their desire toward one another, men with men
committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons
the due penalty of their error. And just as they did not
see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over
to a depraved mind, to do things which are not proper,.."
Romans 1:26-28 (NASB)
"Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the Kingdom of God?
Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral not idolaters
nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
nor thieves not the greedy nor drunkards nor swindlers will
inherit the kingdom of God.
And that is what some of you [the Christians of Corinth] were.
But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified
in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
and by the Spirit of our God."
1 Corinthians 6:9-11 (NIV)
