Jude:1:7: Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Romans:1:26-28:
26: For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28: And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
It doesn't. Read The Bible and find out for yourself. NEVER trust anyone else to tell you what you should believe or to give you information you can find for yourself.
The New Testament doesn't have to say gayness is wrong. The New Testament does not contradict the Old Testament. Paul condemned gayness in several places, most notably in Romans 1.
Jesus was never recorded to have spoken against gayness as it was not a public institution in His day. Homosexual behavior was a capital offense, and as such more people with such leanings resisted it, loopholed it away, practiced it discretely, or lived in the closet. Pedophilia was permitted in Biblical times, as long as it was it was not incestuous. Ancient Jewish law said that same-sex relations with children was not in violation of the commandment against homosexuality, since the exact word was "man." "A man shall not lie with mankind..." A boy is not a man. Jesus was not recorded as opposing that either, nor slavery for that matter. So gayness was not a public institution and thus Jesus had no need to discuss it. Other communities allowed the open practice of homosexuality in that day, but Jesus didn't initially come for them. His death and the gift of the Holy Spirit was for everyone else, to give them the power to resist temptation and to change. But that was after His death.

What percentage of the Bible is the New Testament?
It would be fair to say the Old Testament is about 80% of the Bible. One must consider the length of Psalms and others being larger than any New Testament Book. The Gospels quote from the Old Testament nearly 700 times with the Book of Isaiah being referred to as the 'Little Bible.' So the New Testament represents about 20% of the Bible pages. That being said, many say the Law of Moses is done away with. But if they realized it was quoted nearly 250 times in the New Testament, even by Jesus Himself, they might think differently.
