who has lived promiscuously as a heterosexual would not be admitted ...

This is stupid. People can always convert and change - and many saints have.

Promiscuous heterosexual behavior may be too much of a good thing, but homosexual behavior is not a good thing to begin with - and herein lies the difference.

Personally, I think it's an attempt to water down the whole thing, somewhat the way the US bishops do by including their anti-death penalty campaign in pro-life campaigns. The death penalty and abortion are two entirely different animals. And the Bishops know it full well, just as they know that promiscuous heterosexual behavior and homosexuality are two totally different things.
