Note that this is Moses speaking rather than God, but if you read it in context, you will see that Moses and God are speaking in turns, laying out the covenant that God has already given to Moses. Obviously, if Moses contradicted God's covenant at some point, it seems likely that something bad would have happened. Therefore, Moses' statements in the Book of Leviticus are presumably an accurate testimony of God's instructions to him on the mountain.

"Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, "Do not let your hair become unkempt, and do not tear your clothes, or you will die and the LORD will be angry with the whole community."--Leviticus 10:6

Luis, Luis, Luis. You may believe that God deems homosexual acts OK. I don't. To me, the Bible absolutely clearly and distinctly forbids homosexual acts (as well as any form of sex outside of marriage between a man and a woman). It also makes sense to me, when one considers the promiscuity of the average homosexual, the STDs they carry, the dirty and disgusting sexual acts they engage in. I personally don't believe that this is what God wants. But you may differ in your beliefs. We don't need to get into arguments about Leviticus. You're entitled to your beliefs; I to mine. I can tolerate yours. Why can't you tolerate those who believe as I do? Why so, so insecure?
