A couple of things. You're employing a logical fallacy here. There's no reason that homosexual relationships can't be part of "healthy sexual practices," you've just decided to define it a priori as unhealthy. And that is fine by me, I have no desire to force everyone to accept beliefs and practices that they find repugnant. That has to work both ways though.
Homosexuality is unhealthy for the following reasons:
1. Anal sex spreads STDs more than any other type of sex
2. Homosexuals have insane partner counts, spreading STDs even more
3. Homosexuals find young men to be hotter (just like a straight man prefers young women) and homosexuals tend to target young boys who are virgins to try and get them to have their first sexual practice with another man, increasing the odds that they develop homosexual tastes. In this way homosexuals tend to be pedophiles, like Sandusky, more so than heterosexuals, because homosexuals realize that if they get to a boy when he's young they can "turn" him gay.
And no, I don't have "proof" for #3, because our culture is too PC to ever conduct this kind of research. But I have extensive experience with gays due to them hitting on me all the time, my step-brother being gay, and having had a gay roommate, so I know what their culture is like.
Personally I have nothing against gays, but if I were to raise some sons there's no way I'd let homos in the same room with them alone.

Also, realistically, how does a modern society effectively ban homosexuality? We've just seen what happens politically to social conservatives. People are only going to spend so much time and energy policing other people's private lives. There's a reason that the most homophobic societies right now also happen to be the most backwards.
You'd have to do it at the town-wide level. For example, a town could ban homosexuals from living in the town, or from them being married, or from them raising children in their communities if they so wished.

This is a very interesting concern considering that you stated you're libertarian but still want to establish the Nazi-style control about which consensual adults can have sex with each others, and which cannot.
First off, there are many types of libertarians, but I would call myself a Communitarian-Libertarian.
Communitarian-Libertarian means promoting decentralized government, and putting power at the bottom of the structure - at the town level - so that if people wanted to ban homos from their community they could do so.
Communitarian-Libertarian would oppose the federal government from banning gays all across America, but they would not oppose banning gays in just one town.
Communitarian-Libertarian is a political philosophy, not a ethical one.

I wouldn't call you intolerant. Instead I'd ask you why do you care?
I really can't understand why American people like so much to peek into each others' bedrooms. In Europe this just doesn't happen.
I'd never want to raise my kids in a community with freaks fucking animals and their own family members.
