"Where is the justice in punishing us for Adam's sin?"
According to scripture, we are not punished for Adam's sin (Ezekiel 18). Rather, Adam's fall from perfection has impacted us (Romans 5).

That would include those who have practiced homosexual behavior (1 Corinthians 6:9-11).

This means Christians are free to speculate about questions like this, keeping in mind that such speculations should not overshadow what is really important in our walk with Christ -- namely, what is clearly revealed in scripture.
