»Where does the bible write homosexuality is bad?«

The second term arsenokoites is a compound noun, composed of arseno, literally "man," and koites meaning "sleeping." One of my colleagues literally translates it as "couch potato." The problem with this term is that it is used only twice in the Christian scriptures (1 Cor. 6:9, 1 Timothy 1:10). There is outside use of the word that indicates some possible meaning of the word. In the Sibylline Oracle 2, "Do not steal seeds...Do not arsenkoitein, do not betray, do not murder." The term occurs in what Martin calls "economic sins, action related to economic injustice or exploitation." (Martin:1996:120). Dale Martin observes that arsenokoitein does not appear elsewhere in the text except where sexual sins are denounced. He finds a similar usage of arsenokoites in the Acts of John where it is listed among sins related to economic and injustice. In his Refutation of All Heresies, Hippolytus narrates how the evil angel Nass commits adultery with Eve and took Adam as his slave boy. Hippolytus uses the word arsenokoitia to denote Nass' relationship with Adam, implying that this is coercive and unjust use of another person sexually. Martin concludes from his survey of Greco-Roman and early Christian literature that arsenkoites refers "a particular role of exploiting others by means of sex, perhaps but not necessarily by homosexual sex." (Martin:1996:123) Christians have committed violence to people attracted to the samesex and still brutalized them over the mistranslation of these words.
