The Bible, the inspired word of Jesus's Dad says:
1 Corinthians 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

1 Timothy 1:10
and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,


Leviticus 18:22
You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination.


Romans 1:26
For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,


Romans 1:27
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.


Leviticus 20:13
If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltiness is upon them.


You'll notice I've included references to both the New Testament and Old Testament. While in the Old Testament it says the punishment shall be death, it must be pointed out that God offers forgiveness of such sin. All sin leads to death. God forgives, when one turns from that sin.

Romans 3:23
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,


All sin, however, that doesn't make it right. We need to let homosexuals know that there is hope to get out of that lifestyle and forgiveness.

Acts 2:38
Peter said to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
"

Beyond that, if someone wants to be Gay, then go for it. God gives us free will. Just don't expect America to make gay marriage legal, or to support the gay agenda.
