Please read the last versein 1cor. According to this scripture even homosexuals can be changed.
1CO 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 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And that is what some of you 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.
This one is for the gay and lesbians out there.
RO 1:26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

The six favorite bibles passages to further mans politics rather than Gods intent can be found on the link I provided. It gives more to the cherry picked interpretations that are assumed, but taken out of context. Even Peter advised caution in taking Pauls writings out of context. Peter 3:16
There is a same gender marraige acknowledged in the Holy Scriptures, and it can be found in Kings.
As far as marraige goes... Marraige between same gender couples is already their right as man can not create a law (yet) for what people believe. Couples have made covenent with God and each other for many years. It's just that society didn't know about it and scat hit the fan when they found out some people had the gaul to use the mind that God gave them and turn to Him.
When Jesus healed people and baptized them he didn't tell them to go create ooodles of laws for their community. He did have alot to say about judging others however.

There are quotes in the current bible that indicate something of that nature but if you go back to older versions you will see that it has been recently added and interpreted as such only in recent times.
The bible has been rewritten so many times time that it is more of a political document written by man than the word of god. There is a religious issue of having more children so the religion with the greatest amount of members become the most powerful. Sad but it is true.

Lev 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
although being gay is a sin. the bible also says to love your neigbor as yourself and pray for them. maybe in their heart they will change that lifestyle. but its between them and what god will decide for them in the end.

I think it's in Deuteronomy? Says something about mankind should not lie with mankind as he would lie with womankind, it is an abomination. But there are also many other abominations in the same book, that you never hear about. Handling any sort of pork product, wearing a piece of clothing with more than one type of fabric, all sorts of weird stuff.

You should get plenty of answers to your question. But, be aware, there many other sins too. If, your gay and curious then fine. But, I hope you not looking to judge someone else. We all have our sins and problems in life. That why we need Jesus.

Ask one of those televangelist preachers. They're bibliophiles. Personally, I have no idea where it is written in the Bible. But, it is in there somewhere. I've heard something from this guy Ali-G interviewed on the Ali-G show.

I don't know if there is a spot actually in the Bible, but when God created man and woman He meant for a Man and Woman to be together and nothing else!!!!!! :)
