28. I don't think it matters
When dealing with the ignorant, point out their ignorance, even obliquely. After all, it isn't you doing the judging, and you are under no obligation to judge homosexuality, adultery, or even mopery with intent to flout.

The "first stone" parable isn't about the "sinner", it's about the person who reads or hears it. If these people think gayness is a sin, so be it. Just make sure to remind them that their arrogance is also a sin. You can be certain that they'll be thinking about the nature of sin, and their own human stupidity, in very short order.
