That's old testement - before the time of Christ. By that accord homosexuality is an "abomination" worthy of death. However, most Christians (as far as I know) follow the new testement (that of Jesus Christ and such) which is more or less a new code of conduct (one of forgiveness and a loving god versus the wrathful god of the old testement). I believe it is made clear in the new testement that marriage is the union of a man and a woman, and that all sexual relations outside of marriage are fornification and thus a sin... but it doesn't actually specify or single out homosexuality. Which is something to keep in mind for those who bash homosexuals in the name of the bible yet have had any sort of relations outside of marriage --- you're sinning just as much as they are. ;-)
