50 years ago it was beyond immoral. Now pop culture says it is immoral to say Homosexuality is a sin and homosexuality is 'moral.' The 'morality' changed with pop culture. Man's morality is not an absolute. It is tied to whatever the culture will allow/condone. That is why God's righteousness/What the bible says about slavery is wrong to you. The culture change the bible/God did not.
The morality of homosexuality didn't change; society's perception of it changed. Consensual sexuality is never immoral by nature, whereas owning another human as property is and always has been.
Your framing these acts through the lens of modern morality. from your current vantage point you can say A was never ok or b always was despite what the people who live in a society thought 50 years ago.
We know this because 50 years ago their were laws on the book identifying homosexuality as being a criminal offense, therefore an immoral act in most states. where as now it is legal for gays to get married. Their was a paradigm shift in morality concerning homosexuality in this country.
If your going to be a self-righteous douche and claim the high ground while ignoring history, I'd like you to go ahead and list all of the other 'morally right' things society currently deems immoral/illegal. Where does underage sex, incest, and sex with animals rank in your version of 'always been moral?' What if all parties give their consent? After all you did say:
