I beg to differ sir, but you have to understand the definition of adultery is to include the following sins: anal or oral sex, bestiality and necrophilia as well as the married having sex with the unmarried or a spouse of another.
Now homosexuals do not like being categorized like that but watch what Jesus does:
"And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more." John 8:3-11 KJV
Now if you look at the situation. Jesus did not Judge her but instead forgave the "adulterer" of her sin and told her to "go now and sin no more." If adultery is defined as I defined it above then the homosexuals were forgiven in the same instance, if they "go now and sin no more" Get it?
