Well, if that was what happened, you would be right. Except,
Homosexuality was (supposedly) specifically condemned. But, not really.
The verse in question actually says, basically, that you must not lie
with another man as you would with your wife. Which isn't really the
same thing, when you think about it - after all, you're also not allowed
to lie with another *woman* as you would with your wife. So, read that
way, it's basically God saying "yes, *smartass*, it still counts as
adultery if it's a dude".
