The bible can't prove it's wrong (it's not), the bible can only prove it's condemned by the bible.
A baby-murdering, kitten-drowning, slavery-condoning, genocide-commanding, torture-loving god is really not your best source of information on morality.

1Corinthians 6:9-11
Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.
This is the New American Standard Bible, considered to be the most literal translation. Notice particularly "and such were some of you". Obviously Paul was aware Christians may have *previously* been involved in one or more of these sins.

No offense dude, perhaps attempt the religion & spirituality area as you will get greater comments. there's a ton of individuals in there who prefer examples like those to offer them a pointy slap around the face.

When Jesus says, "Go and sin no more".
I would suggest reading Jerry Bridges, "Pursuit of Holiness" and "Practice of Godliness" if you have any doubts about how to overcome sin in your life.
