They bowed down and worshiped the things God made instead of worshiping the God who made those things. He is the one who should be praised forever. Amen.
This is what I was saying about people not understanding the difference between sexual acts and sexuality. What chance did the twats 2000 years ago have? It's not like God could explain something to them they didn't already know, now is it.
Why am I teaching Christians what their own book says?
26 Because people did those things, God left them and let them do the shameful things they wanted to do. Women stopped having natural sex with men and started having sex with other women. 27 In the same way, men stopped having natural sex with women and began wanting each other all the time. Men did shameful things with other men, and in their bodies they received the punishment for those wrongs.
So... to you this identification of sin (Which BTW if you take the time to read includes the desire to have homosexual sex along with the sex act) is not the bible expressly forbidding the act AND the sexuality/sexual identification?
This Romans 1 example is just 1 of a hand full of instances where all aspects of homosexual activity is identifies and forbidden.
Even if you somehow can get around all of this you still have to over come the biblical ban on all sex outside of a sanctified marriage. In that no where in the bible is homosexual marriage sanctified. Which again means ALL Homosexual activity is a sin. Because is the thought of sex with someone of the oppsite sex is a sin according to Christ Then we can safly assume the thought of sex with the same sex is also a sin given ALL Sex with the same sex is identified as being sinful.
