Mormons currently believe that it is a sin to act on homosexual attraction, though having homosexual attraction in and of itself is not a sin because it is not freely chosen. They see gays as people equal in dignity and loved by God just the same as everyone else, as we are all sinners.
This is the same belief regarding homosexuality as the majority of Christian denominations. Mormons are no different in that sense.
TFTFY
Everything (literally) in the Mormon orbit is subject to change, as it has been since Joe Smith saw the blinding light in the woods in (pick one) 1817, 1818, 1819, 1820, 1821, 1822, 1823, or 1824.
(Joe Smith has claimed various years for the First Visitation and researchers have noted problems with all them contradicting known historical details and have proposed other years. The Mormon hierarchy claims all the conflicting dates and the greatly differing accounts presented by Joe Smith on different occasions are "remarkably consistent". A skeptic might suspect Joe was telling so many lies and making up so much folderol that he was not able to keep track of it)
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
