First you have the city of Sodom where God says he has condemned because the men there engage in a great deal of wickedness. So what where they doing? Here is what they said when Lot and his family arrived in the city.
‘Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.’’"“ (NIV)
Soon after the city was destroyed.
This is from Jude
“In a similar way Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.” (NIV)
Another verse from leveticus
“Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.” (18:22)
Note that God describes it as DETESTABLE. This is not an opinion that changes over the years and God is all of a sudden pro gay sex.

You will find your answer in any verses that deal in sexual immorality. I do not have my Bible handy with me, but any sexual conduct, homosexuality, fornication, adultery, etc, is a sin before God. May God Bless

there are only two places in the entire Bible against homosexual males. Leviticus 18:22 and somewhere in Romans
all the others a mistranslations, here is my source http://www.geocities.com/pharsea/Greeks.html
and there are absolutely no verses against lesbianism.
and their are more verses in the Bible against women having short hair then against homosexuality.

1 Corinthians 6:9
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
