Zero Cool, You think a little too much for that pea brain of yours. Those exerpts from the Bible that you just manipulated to fit your your argument was the biggest bunch of BS I have ever read. I hope you really don't fool yourself into believing that garbage, or you will have an uncomfortable eternity.

Yes. God does and therefore, so do I. He destroyed entire cities for their rampant homosexual practices. Read Genesis 19.

A lot of people do, but I'm not one of them.
The authorities in the psychological community have been telling the world for the past 4 decades in no uncertain terms that homosexuality is normal, natural, healthy and unchangeable. It is a sexual orientation like heterosexuality and NOT a perversion, illness, disorder, etc.
P.S. You folks who are referencing the Bible as justification should really do a little more critical analysis before you spout out verses. Consider this before you rant about the Bible "condemning" homosexuality:
The passages in Leviticus (18:22 and 20:13), understood IN THE CONTEXT of the time and place, are not an admonishment against loving sexual relationships between people of the same sex but instead against sex as a form of domination and control. Besides, these passages are part of the Holiness Code which is not binding to modern day Christians (or anyone else for that matter).
The story of Sodom and Gomorrah was a warning against rape, inhospitality and xenophobia. The reason for Sodom's destruction is made clear in Ezekiel 16:48-50. According to Ezekiel, the sins of Sodom were pride, laziness, being inhospitable, neglecting the needs of the poor, greed, and idolatry (the worshiping of idols). Nothing about homosexuality is mentioned. If Jude 1:7 describes anything about the sexual immorality and perversion in Sodom and Gomorrah, it's describing RAPE.
1 Corinthians 6:9 was a mistranslation of the word "malakee". It's used elsewhere in the Bible to mean someone who lacks discipline or one who is morally weak, and never is it used in reference to sexuality or gender.
1 Timothy 1:9-10? Also a mistranslation. 1 Timothy was an admonishment against male prostitution, not committed, loving same sex relationships.
The words "physin" and "paraphysin" in Romans 1:26-27 have also been mistranslated. Contrary to popular belief, the word "paraphysin" does not mean "to go against the laws of nature", but rather implies action which is uncharacteristic for that particular person. An example of the word "paraphysin" is used in Romans 11:24, where God acts in an uncharacteristic (paraphysin) way to accept the Gentiles. When the scripture is understood correctly, it implies that it would be unnatural for heterosexuals to live as homosexuals and for homosexuals to live as heterosexuals.

I would not say that it is wrong, but I certainly believe that it's not what was intended through God or evolution. It's not natural. The tools don't fit!!! That being said, homosexulity has been going on throughout recorded history. As humans, we have more developed minds than any other species allowing us to make decisions for ourselves without relying completely on instinct.
Homosexuals are not bad people, I just choose not to live the same way.

I think "wrong" is the wrong word. Everyone has a choice and can act as they choose. Therefore, each person creates their own right and wrong. A Christians "wrong" may be completely different from an Atheists "wrong". That being said, it is only wrong if YOU believe it is wrong.
For myself, I don't think it's wrong to be a homosexual, but in my faith it is wrong to engage in homosexual sexual activities. To each their own. I respect everyone regardless.

Yes, mostly because there's a verse in the bible about not laying with a man like you would with a woman (it's somewhere in Leviticus). However, that doesn't make homosexual people bad--hate the sin, love the sinner.

Way to make sure the bible fits YOUR view on everything. Sucks when it doesn't agree with you, doesn't it.
Only the religious zealots think it is wrong.
There is no god and all prophets are false.
