Why aren't they struggling with the salvific aspects of their adultery ?
Because if you break what Jesus says down, He commands that "unless people divorce to marital unfaithfulness" and they divorce and remarry they will be committing adultry.
Unfaithful to the marriage means unfaithful to our vows/The marriage vows we take inorder to be united before God. Vows plural not vow singular.
Meaning all of our vows, love (not feeling/duty) honor, obey, yadda yadda yadda.. Not just the adultery bit. there is more to being married than just not sleeping around.
Back in Jesus' Day men would marry as a way of sleeping around. They would marry and then quickly divorce citing they way she cooks or keeps a house. Or any trivial little thing. Jesus by telling men they must remain married unless she breaks one of her Vows was a harsh spit in the eye of the religious establishment who permitted these nonsense divorces.

It also doesn't explain WHY they consider any of this a sin.
Because the bible says so???

Ironically one could point out that the the one fighting to keep Homosexuality a sin, care more for the sinner than those who would allow this sin or any to go without acknowledging it's sin status.
See... there's no such place called 'hell', your make believe God is the only thing that allows you to justify oppressing these people. And as long as your make believe sky monster does that.... really there's no good reason for Atheists to let up against these Sky Monsters.
So... let me understand what you are saying again what I just said..
I said:
If a gay person wants to believe what I do, they are always welcome to do so. all they must do is identify their sexual sins like I identify my sexual sins, and all is forgiven. They like me will have the same standing before God as I do if not maybe alittle more, depending on their work and life.
You said:
"My beliefs are my only justification for hating people..." (Ok, but to me it seem like I was exending a way for us to be equal or for me to even take a lessor role in the after life/before God than a gay person)
"So long as your 'sky monster' does that Atheists should have the freedom to remove all tolerant and civil behavior from their interactions with Christians."
(Effectively make you the person you think I am)
Question: how does your hypocrisy not cause/demand you to spontaneously combust?
