Is there anything in the NEW TESTAMENT or the GOSPELS concerning homosexuality?

Jesus rejected the OLD TESTAMENT and Judaism - thats why till this very day JEWISH ORTHODOXY does not recognise Jesus as the mesiah or the son of god.

The OLD TESTAMENT AND NEW TESTAMENT texts should not be bound together as ONE Holy Bible - they are not morally compatibale - You ony have to read the Old Testament to see that it has nothing to do with any GOD or creator but rather superstition. hatred, revenge and antiquated moral barbarism.

Even non-christian people cant really criticise anything Jesus uttered - or supposedly uttered.

Jesus was basically a social-political philosopher in the Hellenic tradition - that fact about Jesus is certain.

Jesus certainly DID NOT set his moral compass according to the OLD TESTAMENT - that much we know is true, and its the main reason why Jesus was abandoned by the Jews themselves.

Remember, Jewish Orthodox Youths were burning COPIEs of the NEW TESTAMENT in the streets of Israel just last month.

In any case - how do you know that Jesus did not practise homosexuality?

That is where you are wrong: Jesus Himself said that He had come to fulfill the Law, not dispense with it.

Christianity inherited its disapproval of homosexuality from Judaism. Judaism derived its disapproval of homosexuality from the fact that homosexual acts were part of the worship ceremonies of various ancient Near Eastern fertility religions.
