No. Many religions have no stance. Then there is also a difference between Religion and Culture (Though religion is created by culture) what I mean by this is while it maybe traditionally seen as bad don't mean the religion actually says it is.

I mostly refer to Hinduism here, there is nothing actually saying it is wrong along with the fact Karma system is based on a judgement not made by others so even if others judge that as a bad act that don't mean it necessarily is therefore it's unknown whether you would be unfortunate in your next life or not for been gay.

But of course traditionally it's seen not in a good light with a minor argument of something about doing your duty which they class getting married to a woman and having kids as a duty but this is mostly a cultural belief it is not actually specified in their religion what this duty means.

Then Norse were very accepting of men been gay however they had a duty culture too. So if you wanted to be gay you still had to marry a woman however you were still allowed to sleep with men. The marriage was more for show than anything.

Greeks and Romans also kinda didn't care. Though a lot varies there. It could be one extreme to another. Many cultures and religions in the past have not forbid such acts just as many did.

I can't speak on the behalf of other religions, but as far as Islam is concerned, yes, homosexuality is forbidden and having same gender sexual relationships is also considered a major sin. There are even evidences where Allah himself had sent calamities and/or punishments over the people of Luut, who rejected the opposite gender and instead started keeping sexual relationships and marriages with people of the same genders as them.

I don't think it would be, as there's a ton of religions out there and some probably don't even care about things like that.

Personally, I don't think that homosexuality is a sin on it's own, like if religion teaches that life's a test, then the desire to do wrong is part of the test, because there's no test without temptation.
