One of the most quoted verses on homosexuality is Leviticus 18:22.
In transliterated Hebrew...
"V�et zachar lo tishkav mishk�vey eeshah toeyvah hee."
The first part of the verse, literally, is, "And with a male you shall not lay lyings of a woman"
"toetvah' refers in Mosaic code to what type of sin. "toetvah" refers to "moral sin", a direct act of rebellion against God or His will.
I'll let everyone have fun figuring out just what the verse means. Maybe Moses suffered from poor grammer.
A somewhat liberal-leaning resource can be found here . Goodness know you can find plenty from a more conservative viewpoint. I just read a good article that condemned homosexuality yet called for tolerance. click here
FWIW, I have no problem with civil unions. I see "marriage" more as a cultural religious act. Perhaps we need civil unions for hetero's as well.
