Challenge: Jesus Never Said a Word about Homosexuality

Today���s challenge comes from an interview with Jimmy Carter:

Homosexuality was well known in the ancient world, well before Christ was born and Jesus never said a word about homosexuality. In all of his teachings about multiple things���he never said that gay people should be condemned. I personally think it is very fine for gay people to be married in civil ceremonies.

Is this an appropriate conclusion? What can we know about Jesus��� view of sexuality? Give us your thoughts in the comments below, and then come back to the blog on Thursday to hear Alan's response to this challenge.
