Can give me a direct quote from the Bible that says homosexuality is wrong?
The Catholic Church … not the Bible … is the only legitimate authority for the Christian faith in the world. This is what the Catholic Church has to say about homosexual activity: Chastity and homosexuality 2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,141 tradition has always declared that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered.”142 They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved. 2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This
Note scripture references at end. 2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity,141 tradition has always declared that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered.”142 They are contrary to the natural law.

Maybe they had read 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, which states, “Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders … will inherit the kingdom of God.” Or Genesis 19, where the Bible describes the account of Sodom and Gomorrah, in which the wickedness of men (including homosexuality) is part of what brought the city down. Peter and Jude make reference to homosexuality as an act of “ungodly, lawless, unnatural and extreme immorality.” Leviticus 18:22 and 24 describe homosexuality as an “abomination” and something that is “defiling.” In Leviticus 20:13 it is described as an “abomination” worthy of death. In Deuteronomy 23:17, if you were a “sodomite” you were forbidden from the land of Israel. In Judges 19 the act of homosexuality is described as “wickedness.” And, in 1 Kings 14, 15, and 22 the removal of male prostitutes from the land of Israel is viewed
