And pedophilia, and murder, and rape, and adultery, all are behaviors the Bible condemns.

Those other activites are rendered illegal (or at least immoral in the case of adultery) because they harm others. They infringe upon others' rights. Religion has no bearing on law. Homosexuality harms nobody. You cannot draw comparisons between homosexuality and behaviours like murder and rape.
