***Mt 5:27-28 - "You have heard that it was said, `YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY'; but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.***

So, your arguement is that a homosexual sins because his homosexual desire in itself is a sin...
But if he was cured, his transfer of lust to a woman would make him an adulterer...

As a man with exclusively homosexual attractions, just by having those attractions does not mean that I lust for other men. I don't think I have wanted to have sexual engagement with another person in years... and if my 'orientation' was changed, then what would prevent me from lusting for a woman?... hence, your logic doesn't stand up.
