i think the word homosexual in the mentioned passage is an incorrect translation since the concept of a homosexual didn't exist until the 1800s and the development of psychoanalysis. the bible seems fairly neutral on what we would consider consentual homosexual relationships.

Our loyalties are to the species and the planet. We speak for Earth. Our obligation to survive is owed not just to ourselves but also to that Cosmos, ancient and vast, from which we spring.
--Carl Sagan, 1934-1996
