The question implies that there are circumstances under which Homosexuality is NOT all right, and that lust is inherently not all right. That would be a question pertaining to personal ideology, religious beliefs or morals. In point of fact, both homosexuality and lust are definable as normal within the range of human behavioral traits. Lust is a biological response that helps drive human beings to reproduce. Homosexuality is behavior that appears in many species of animals in almost the same incidence as it does in human beings. These facts argue that both are perfectly normal. Whether or not you feel that either is morally wrong is a belief system you are imposing on behavoirs that, in themselves, have no moral component. They are simply evolved traits within our species. For example, Human beings can kill each other... we have evolved with the ability to do that. That ability itself is not a moral issue. It would not have evolved if it was not advantageous in some sense. However, we all agree that there are circumstance under which killing is justifiable, and others when it is not. Therefore, it is context and intent that determines whether killing is moral, not the killing itself. Lust CAN be immoral, if it is indulged with immoral intent. Just as homosexuality can be immoral if its is expressed as, say, rape. However, neither, in and off itself, can be correctly characterized as wrong.
