Jesus didn't.
Why can't God Incorporated get everyone on board with company policy ?
Yes, and as you are found of pointing out, Jesus did speak out against divorce.
Matthew 19:
9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
Mark 10:
11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
And yet there are many pretend "Christians" who divorce and do not go on about that, but instead make a big deal out of homosexuality, that Jesus did not think important enough to condemn.
If Christians were serious about the Bible, they would not ever divorce, and would condemn those who divorce and remarry. Yet many pretend Christian churches not only do not have a problem with their members doing such things, they often even will perform the ceremony for the multiple (adulterous, according to the words of Jesus) marriages.
In other words, they are hypocrites who only pretend to follow Jesus.

As for the opening post, homosexuality is obviously natural, as it has been observed in many animal species:

That obviously has nothing to do with man's "free will" or any other such nonsense. It is totally natural, or it would not happen in nature.
