The Bible clearly states it in Romans 1:27 saying "men leaving the natural use of the woman... men with men, working that which is unseemly". God intended from the begining, for man to be like him, but Adam and Eve were decieved by Satan who came in the form of a snake, which is an animal, and Adam sinned against God, making him lower than God and the angels. But he was still above animals. Then later in the cities of Sodom and Gommora, men became homosexuals. Abraham went their to rescue all the righteous people that were there. While they were their, the homosexuals, tried to force the men to come out and have sex with them. Abraham and the few people escaped and God destroyed the cites with brimstone and fire. Nowhere in the Bible does it say Jesus tolerates sin, especially homosexuallity. He forgives it but he doesn't tolerate it. But he can't forgive it if they don't repent.

Yes Homosexuality is a sin. It is morally, physically and biblically wrong. If it was intended for men to be with men and women to be with women then why would there be two genders instead of just one.

The Bible takes no direct stand on the morality of homogenital acts as such nor on the morality of gays and lesbian relationships as we concieve them today. Indeed, the Bible's longest treatment of the matter in Romans, suggests that in themselves homogenital acts have no ethical significance whatsoever. However, understood in context of the decadent first century Roman Empire, 1 Corinthians and 1 Timothy might suggest this lession: abusive forms of male-male sex and of male-female, must be avoided. While the Bible makes no blanket condemnation of homogenital acts and even less of homosexuality, this does not mean that for gay individuals anything goes. If they rely on the Bible for guidance and inspiration, they will certainly feel bound by the core moral teachings of the Judeo-Christian tradition: Be prayerful, reverence God, respect others, be loving and kind, be forgiving and merciful, be honest and just. Work for harmony and peace. Stand up for truth. Give of yourself for all that is good, and avoid all that you know to be evil. To do that is to follow God's way. To do that is to love God with your whole heart and soul. To do that is to be a true disciple of Jesus.

You are right. The bible does say homosexuality is a sin. Just as lying is a sin and gossiping is a sin.
That doesn't mean we have to hate or condemn people who commit those sins because ALL have sinned and fallen short of the glory of god.
Yet, while we were still sinners, Christ died for our sins. Once, for all.

Common sense says yes it is. Two men or two women can not produce offspring which is a reason God created a man and a woman for more or less that sole purpose other than worshipping Him.

Yup you're a fundagelical aren't you.
God MADE all of US including homosexuals, bi's , lesbians and heteros, IN HIS OWN IMAGE and his son, you remember Jesus right? said love one another as you love yourself and I don't think he meant it literally.
Alot of things have evolved since the bible , medicine, dna, genetics and we KNOW more than they did and we now know that homosexuality occurs before birth and isn't a lifestyle choice no matter what your pastor tells you.
Who would choose to be treated the way homosexuals are especially but fundamentalists.

Its not only a sin, it is a monstrosity of a sin.
Whereas fornication is using a natural good (sexual intercourse between a man and a woman) but using it under the wrong circumstances (outside of marriage), homosexual sex is perverted in its *essence.*
The rectum is meant to expel feces, not accept a male organ|
This is elementary reasoning, just like you don't piss in your own drinking water.
Although the Bible and the Church forbid homosexual sex, our own natural reason can tell us that it is wrong|
The heinous thing about *political correctness* is that it disables the intellect's ability to understand the most elementary truths|

Duh.
The people who say it's not a sin are the same people who say:
sex is not a sin, they don't have to go to church, Jesus is not God, foul language is not a sin, abortion is not murder, they don't have to tithe, it's alright to judge others.

No, god doesnt like it. It is sin, but it is not our place to judge. Many gays are probably good people.

Its not just being a GAY in itself,
Hommos lie,threaten,skirt vulnerable people.spy,they have no regard for normal people.the list goes on.In the world of gay whats a diner?
All gays at one stage have been taken advantage of by people they trusted,The sad thing is good ordinary people are used as a foil to justify themselves.
Youd nearly feel sorry for them but they are just so nasty about it.They are a pretty aggresive bunch of people.
Truth as i see it.
