Homosexuality is a Sin

homosexuality is a sinIt's shocking that many so-called "Christians" believe that homosexuality is not a sin. After this debate received national attention because of comments by Phil Robertson, some Christians announced that his comments were wrong. I am assuming that these people are the same liberal-minded Christians that believe abortion is not a sin.
Certainly, there are many subjects in the Bible that can be interpreted differently and are open for debate. But, the subject of homosexuality should not be one of them unless you are reading a different Bible that I am. I cannot understand how anyone could read these following verses and conclude anything other than, homosexuality is a sin!
Lev. 18:22 Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.
Lev. 20:13 If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
1 Cor. 6:9 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.
Rom. 1:26-28 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.
After reading these Bible verses, do you see any possible way that homosexuality could be believed to not be a sin? Maybe I am missing something here, but the sinful nature of homosexuality is made perfectly clear in the Bible.
The next time a Christian tells you that there is nothing wrong with homosexuality, just have them read any of these verses and explain how they came up with such nonsense!
Of course, this does not mean that I dislike homosexuals or anyone that believes this act is not a sin. The Bible teaches us to love everyone and I believe this 100%. However, a sin is a sin; just as with lying or cheating. This is not for me to judge, but for God.
