So if adultery is just as bad as all the others, why not focus on it since it is what happens more often than all the others combined? Why the persecution of Gays while giving the much larger group of sinners a free pass?
A free pass in what sense?
God's opinion....Romans 1:26-32
That is why God gave them up to disgraceful sexual appetites, for both their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature; 27 and likewise even the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving in themselves the full recompense, which was due for their error.
28 And just as they did not approve of holding God in accurate knowledge, God gave them up to a disapproved mental state, to do the things not fitting, 29 filled as they were with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, badness, being full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malicious disposition, being whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, insolent, haughty, self-assuming, inventors of injurious things, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, false to agreements, having no natural affection, merciless. 32 Although these know full well the righteous decree of God, that those practicing such things are deserving of death, they not only keep on doing them but also consent with those practicing them.
Notice please that even liars are classed right in with sexually immoral persons, murders and those practicing spiritism. And each of these is deserving of everlasting destruction. Yes, in Gods eyes all these unclean practices are displeasing to him.
