You talk in generalities. If you want to get to specifics, I will see every single one, showing you are a hypocrite.

I don’t “claim applies” — the bible SAYS they do and there is no update.

YOU are the one involved in evil imagination.

“the bible SAYS they do and there is no update”

At the time these things were revealed to Noah, no scriptures existed. But the Law of Moses has application to other nations than Israel. Homosexual sex acts were among the sins called an abomination and which incur God’s wrath no matter what nation the offenders are part of:

Leviticus 18:24-30
Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you. For the land is defiled; therefore I visit the punishment of its iniquity upon it, and the land vomits out its inhabitants. You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations, either any of your own nation or any stranger who dwells among you (for all these abominations the men of the land have done, who were before you, and thus the land is defiled), lest the land vomit you out also when you defile it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you. For whoever commits any of these abominations, the persons who commit them shall be cut off from among their people. Therefore you shall keep My ordinance, so that you do not commit any of these abominable customs which were committed before you, and that you do not defile yourselves by them: I am the Lord your God.

Committing such acts are the legal basis for being “cut off” from “their” people, not just the nation of Israel.

The application of the law to the whole world for exposing sin is confirmed in the New Testament:

Romans 3:19
Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

“I will see every single one, showing you are a hypocrite... YOU are the one involved in evil imagination.”

You are lashing out in a very unloving way for someone who just attacked Manny for posting scripture, and claimed he was wrong and that his approach was unloving. So you might want to rethink hurling accusations like hypocrisy.

But if you want specific scriptures, I will give them.

Acts 25:11
For if I am an offender, or have committed anything deserving of death, I do not object to dying; but if there is nothing in these things of which these men accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar.

Romans 1:32
who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

Romans 13:4
For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.

1 Timothy 1:8-10
But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully, knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine.

Of course I am not even including the numerous times that Christ and his apostles specifically addressed to whole category of sins under the term “fornication”, and specifically named Sodom and the sin of Sodom as a category of sin that cries to the Heavens for judgment.

And even a punishment far worse than the death penalty is prescribed:

Revelation 21:8
But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.
