Even if the bible did say that, which I don't see anywhere, isn't it our choice as people to sin or not? I don't understand why people can't see that LOVE is LOVE. And it's not true that animals don't practice this, certain lizards practice this and animals even ones like lions can be homosexual. Animals don't kill their loved ones- yes they do. A female lion will let a male lion kill her kits, a rabbit will eat their young, and birds have a new partner every season almost, the chances of them finding the same bird are slim, you've been misinformed on lots. Try researching things before assuming.

The Bible also says eating shellfish is an abomination, wearing clothes from two different threads is an abomination ... but I don't see anyone picketing the seafood restaurants or boycotting poleyester and wool blends. Why don't people uphold those biblical laws instead of using the Bible to condemn homosexuals?
PS Homosexuality in the animal kingdom is quite common and considered very natural.

Homosexuality is far older then the bible, and also occurs in other mammals - dolphins, dogs even lesbian hyenas. I find the bible to be restrictive to Human expression and it goes against nature. Have you ever seen a documentary on apes when the alpha male smashes the brains in of an infant; a NORMAL activity of an ape troupe from time to time- take a look at the real world

Not everybody believes what's in the Bible. Do we not live in a country where you are free to choose your religion? It also says in the bible to not judge lest you be judged. I love how people just pick from the bible whatever they feel is right, if you're going to "quote" from the bible-don't contradict yourself by using that quote out of context. The truth is, people should be allowed to choose whoever partner they want. It is in no way hurting you, so why not just let it be?
