"Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, not thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortionists will inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
There are several places in the Bible where it talks about homosexuality. The Bible has nothing positive to say about men and women sleeping with the same sex. In Leviticus 20:13, it states ''If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable act, they shall surely be put to death. Their blood guiltiness is upon them.”
Homosexuality has been around as long for as there is recorded history. Through the years, however, the opinions towards homosexuality have changed. Now, homosexuality is being labeled as a genetic trait rather than as a psychological problem. But not everyone believes this to be true.
Some people still asking if is it possible for one to choose his or her sexual orientation? Is one's sexual orientation something that can be changed, or is it a fixed attraction? These are a few questions, among many others that have been raised by researchers and religious organizations, as well as everyday people. Particularly, over the last decade there have been various debates over whether sexual orientation is based on genetic factors or whether it is a choice.
Most researchers find that homosexuality, like many others psychological conditions, is due to a combination of social, biological, or psychological factors; including a postnatal environment that have an impact on one's sexual orientation. This is just one specification that one's sexual orientation is determined at a young age, and is a lifestyle that is not chosen.

I found one article in http://www.apa.org/pi/lgbc/publications/justthefacts.html that said“Sexual behavior does not necessarily equate to sexual orientation. Many adolescents—as well as many adults—may identify themselves as homosexual or bisexual without having had any sexual experience,” i think that therapists should not modify or change homosexuality but help the person decelop more feelings about their sexual directions.

Hi,
God made sex to be good, holy and clean and for the procreation of mankind. But people have perverted it. Whatever the personal preference, it does not go against the nature that God had created us to be.
