I have no doubt that Jesus would have had fellowship with homosexuals-no one denies that. But Jesus also had fellowship with prostitutes-the point isn't that Jesus was condoning the sin-it's that he was loving the person regardless.
Paul I think you make a good point, I guess the issues are just seen as quite separate. According to Lev God hates it when two men get too friendly - regardless of whether or not we obey lev law in the Church. Divorce and remarriage are more negotiable because Jesus gave exceptions. But to be honest i'm undecided on that one.
