I don't that the two being mentioned in the same chapter means anything, the Leviticus was written over a long timespan, not in chronological order. You can often find totally random laws written after each other.
BTW, now that I'm thinking about it, why not? How is either bestiality, or homosexuality morally worse than the other one?

Humans can understand and give consent, Show me how an animal can both understand what you are doing to it and give consent, and I will repeal that argument...
To be honest that is one reason out of dozens.

Animals aren't required to give consent for being butchered, and eaten by you, either. How is sex worse?
|
Because sex is cruelty to animals. Butchering them (if done right) shouldn't be cruel at all. If you want to have sex with a dead animal be my guest (though I will think you most odd) - however a live one is out of bounds for good reason.
@starcraft. Its hypocritical due to the fact that christian scripture is meant to be all about loving thy neighbour even if they sin and all that. When you think about it, what would Jesus do?

Of course the irony there is that most animals are not butchered right... in general the living conditions of animals grown for food are well... horrible.
