===Biblical passages===
We know that the law is good, provided that one uses it as law, with the understanding that law is meant not for a righteous person but for the lawless and the unruly, the godless and the sinful, the unholy and profane, those who kill their fathers or mothers, murders, the unchaste, homosexuals, kidnapers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is opposed to sound teaching, ({{Bible verse|1 Tim Timothy|1|8|lang=WEB}}{{Bible verse|1 Timothy|1|9|lang=WEB}}{{Bible verse|1 Timothy|1|10|lang=WEB}}- [[1 Timothy 1]]:[[Bible:1 Timothy 1:8|8]][[Bible:1 Timothy 1:9|-]][[Bible:1 Timothy 1:10|10)]]
You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination. Nor shall you mate with any animal, to defile yourself with it. Nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it. It is perversion. ‘Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you. (Lev. {{Bible verse|Leviticus|18|22|lang=WEB}}{{Bible verse|Leviticus|18|23|lang=WEB}}{{Bible verse|Leviticus|18|24|lang=WEB}}- [[Leviticus 18]]:[[Bible:Leviticus 18:22|22]][[Bible:Leviticus 18:23|-]][[Bible:Leviticus 18:24|24)]]
If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives. (Lev {{Bible verse|Leviticus|20|13|lang=WEB}}- [[Bible:Leviticus 20:13|Leviticus 20:13)]]
Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators{{Bible verse|1 Corinthians|6|9|lang=WEB}}{{Bible verse|1 Corinthians|6|10|lang=WEB}}- [[Bible:1 Corinthians 6:9|1 Corinthians 6:9]], 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.([[Bible:1 Cor. Corinthians 6:9-10)|10]]
For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper. (Rom. {{Bible verse|Romans|1|26|lang=WEB}}{{Bible verse|Romans|1|27|lang=WEB}}{{Bible verse|Romans|1|28|lang=WEB}}- [[Romans 1]]:[[Bible:Romans 1:26|26]][[Bible:Romans 1:27|-]][[Bible:Romans 1:28|28)]]
In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire. ({{Bible verse|Jude |1|7)|lang=WEB}}- [[Bible:Jude 1:7|Jude 7]]
And reducing the cities of the Sodomites, and of the Gomorrhites, into ashes, condemned them to be overthrown, making them an example to those that should after act wickedly.({{Bible verse|2 Peter|2|6|lang=WEB}}- [[Bible:2 Peter 2:6|2 Peter 2:6) ]]
