So? It also says adultery is a sin, is the Bible cheaterphobic? Murder is a sin, is the Bible homicidalphobic? It says that bestiality and incest are sins, is the Bible animalphobic and relativephobic? It's a ridiculous argument to try and make Horseman.
The difference here is that the other sins you have listed are not natural reactions to our biology. We can't help our sexuality anymore than we can help what foods we like. So the bible condemning homosexuality is like condemning me for not liking beans. I just can't help it though. While the bible may only be calling homosexuality a sin equal to all other sins, many Christians use that one tiny verse to justify their hate of those they don't understand.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
