One's soul is only important if you takes the leap of faith in believing one has a soul. If you have leapt in error, than this life may be all that you have, and living it in fear of some eternity that may not exist, is a foolish calculation. Prejudice is merely prejudging. You have prejudged that people have souls. You have prejudged that the homosexual life is not acceptable. You even seem to have prejudged that it is against natural selection. Now we all prejudge, but I think you have prejudged in obvious error, because you certainly have not proved it to be against natural selection. If it truly was against natural selection, homosexuality would have died out, and yet, it has not. Natural selection preserves many options, and it appears to preserve that option as well. If homosexuality were truly against natural selection, we would not be having this conversation, as any genetic coding for it would have died out, abandoned on the scrap heap of genetic possibilities that added nothing to the human genome. Clearly it is functional, or tied to functional genes. You are, I think, hoist on your own petard with that argument. :-) As to the laws of God, they change all the time- just depends on who you ask, in what century, and which God or Gods they believe in.
