Would Jesus discriminate? No, but he cannot have a relationship with an imperfect person, God demands perfection and that includes being sexually pure.

Would Jesus discriminate? No, that's the big advantage of being all knowing. You do not need to make judgment’s based on appearances.
Will God enforce his rules? Up to him, but it would be foolish to bet against it.
Will God provide equivalence of outcome? Doesn't seem likely.
Is it appropriate to apply of current political judgments to the creator of the universe?

“No, but he cannot have a relationship with an imperfect person, God demands perfection and that includes being sexually pure.”

Huh?

Have you ever read a bible?

Not a single person that God had a relationship with was perfect, except His Son.

We are all imperfect. While we were yet sinners Christ died for us. God’s perfection is Christ and if we put our trust in Him then we are fine. Abraham, Noah, King David, etc... were not sexually pure.
No one is a super duper Christian. On this journey of life God helps us to overcome those those bad things. It’s might be six months or it could be sixty years.
Homosexuality is like any other sin.
