It's another slogan that passes for thought among the thinking-averse: "Jesus didn't say anything about homosexuality...." The rest of the sentence remains unspoken for fear that laughter might break out. "Jesus didn't say anything about homosexuality; therefore He approves of it."
First of all, that's what's known as an "argument from silence;" a logical fallacy. By this rule Jesus would be made to endorse rape, cannibalism and lots of other nasty stuff. Secondly, we cannot know whether Jesus, in His brief earthly ministry, ever mentioned homosexual sin specifically (see John 21:25), so the claim can't be substantiated.
But the slogan is not only unverifiable and non-rational; it reveals ignorance of what we know Jesus did say. Though His teachings recorded in the gospels don't directly address the issue of same-sex sex, the Scriptures leave no room for an honest reader to conclude that Christ condones any sin, including this one.

"The priests who venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their confreres .
The demon will rage especially against souls consecrated to God. The thought of the loss of so many souls is the cause of my sadness. If sins increase in number and gravity, there will no longer be pardon for them."THE MESSAGE OF OUR LADY OF AKITA (1973 - 1981) Apparitions Approved – An Urgent Message

Saint Catherine of Siena and San Bernardino of Siena, even claimed that sodomy is the most serious sin after sin against the Holy Spirit, however, if persistently practiced sodomy, in violation of the commandments of God, also becomes a sin in which there is no forgiveness: "...

Saint Catherine of Siena and San Bernardino of Siena, even claimed that sodomy is the most serious sin after sin against the Holy Spirit, however, if persistently practiced sodomy, in violation of the commandments of God, also becomes a sin in which there is no forgiveness: "...
Saint Catherine of Siena, a religious mystic of the 14th century, relays words of Our Lord Jesus Christ about the vice against nature, which contaminated part of the clergy in her time. Referring to sacred ministers, He says: “They not only fail from resisting this frailty [of fallen human nature] … but do even worse as they commit the cursed sin against nature. Like the blind and stupid, having dimmed the light of their understanding, they do not recognize the disease and misery in which they find themselves. For this not only causes Me nausea, but displeases even the demons themselves, whom these miserable creatures have chosen as their lords. For Me, this sin against nature is so abominable that, for it alone, five cities were submersed, by virtue of the judgment of My Divine Justice, which could no longer bear them…. It is disagreeable to the demons, not because evil displeases them and they find pleasure in good, but because their nature is angelic and thus is repulsed upon seeing such an enormous sin being committed. It is true that it is the demon who hits the sinner with the poisoned arrow of lust, but when a man carries out such a sinful act, the demon leaves.” (St. Catherine of Siena,
dialogue of Divine Providencechap. 124
-Madrid: BAC, 1991), p. 292)

Catecism of the Catholic Church 1868
Sin is a personal act. Moreover, we have a responsibility for the sins committed by others when we cooperate in them:
- by participating directly and voluntarily in them;
- by ordering, advising, praising, or approving them;
- by not disclosing or not hindering them when we have an obligation to do so;
- by protecting evil-doersMore

1 Thessalonians 4
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSVCE)
A Life Pleasing to God
4 Finally, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, you do so more and more. 2 For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. 3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification:[a] …More
1 Thessalonians 4
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSVCE)
A Life Pleasing to God
4 Finally, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, you do so more and more. 2 For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. 3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification:[a] that you abstain from immorality;[b] 4 that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, 5 not in the passion of lust like heathen who do not know God; 6 that no man transgress, and wrong his brother in this matter,[c]because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we solemnly forewarned you. 7 For God has not called us for uncleanness, but in holiness. 8 Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
Saint Augustine is categorical in the combat against sodomy and similar vices. The great Bishop of Hippo wrote: “Sins against nature, therefore, like the sin of Sodom, are abominable and deserve punishment whenever and wherever they are committed. If all nations committed them, all alike would be held guilty of the same charge in God’s law, for our Maker did not prescribe that we should use each other in this way. In fact, the relationship that we ought to have with God is itself violated when our nature, of which He is Author, is desecrated by perverted lust.”
Further on he reiterates: “Your punishments are for sins which men commit against themselves, because, although they sin against You, they do wrong in their own souls and their malice is self-betrayed. They corrupt and pervert their own nature, which You made and for which You shaped the rules, either by making wrong use of the things which You allow, or by becoming inflamed with passion to make unnatural use of things which You do not allow” (Rom. 1:26). (St. Augustine, Confessions, Book III, chap. 8)

After many years, a Jewish mother gets the phone call she never thought she would get from her openly gay son. "Mom, I've met a wonderful girl. I'm going straight, and we're going to get married." Mom is overjoyed, but can't really believe things are that good. "I suppose it's too much to ask that she's Jewish." Her son says, "Mom, not only is she Jewish, but she happens to be from a very wealthy …More
After many years, a Jewish mother gets the phone call she never thought she would get from her openly gay son. "Mom, I've met a wonderful girl. I'm going straight, and we're going to get married." Mom is overjoyed, but can't really believe things are that good. "I suppose it's too much to ask that she's Jewish." Her son says, "Mom, not only is she Jewish, but she happens to be from a very wealthy and prominent Beverly Hills family." Mom is beside herself with joy, and says, "You don't know how happy you've made me. What's her name?" The son says, "Monica Lewinsky." Mom is silent for a moment, and then says, "What happened to that nice Catholic boy you used to date?"
The Homos don't care about Scripture. They know Scripture Condemns homosexuality, referring to it as Unnatural, an Abomination, a Perversion worthy of death. All they care about is themselves and getting the public to accept their Sodomite living. Will NEVER Happen!
