Laws do not judge character. Laws judge acts.
Which is exactly my point. As Jesus pointed out in Matthew 5:28 it's actually lust that's the sin, but the law can't tell what's in a person's heart and so it judges them according to the act alone, and not according to what's in their heart. Homosexuality is thus universally condemned because of the act itself, regardless of whether that act was born out of lust or love. Therein lies the law's flaw... it cannot judge hearts. But God can, and hopefully the members of His church can, and it's this ability to judge people by what's in their heart that allows divorced people and homosexual people to be welcome in God's church.
