No Shame on you and all the homosexuals for disregarding what God has already commanded.
. . .
I hope everyone here is honest enough to acknowledge that every time someone says "God said" or "God commanded", that is really a shortened way of saying "Someone said that God said" or "Someone said that God commanded". Every single time. You do know that, right?

Instead of me trying to guess at what you are trying to say, I'm going to ask you to clarify.
So, please could you clarify the above comment?

Sure.
Every single claim that God has said something is made by a human. I.e., a man (or woman) claims to have hears God say something -- whether by an audible voice, or a dream, or a still small voice. Some of those claims were written down thousands of years ago. Some of those written claims are believed by many people today. So when you say "God said xyz", what you really mean is "Someone claimed that God said xyz, and I believe him."
By the way, whether such claims are true or not is irrelevant to my statement. So it you agree with it, it's not an admission that you might be wrong (or more to the point, that the one who made the original claim might be wrong), so there's no reason to disagree, really. (But some will anyway, I expect. )

A libertarian argument for the right of a free people to marry as they choose can be made. Nature isn't the best indicator. Because though homosexuality is found among animals, they don't have a right to contact nor the right to free association.

Which answers the original question...how?
