"Whether the bible says it explicitly or implicitly is irrelevant. God’s will on sex is clearly communicated throughout Scripture. Even thinking about it is playing with fire. Jesus talked about sex once, in Matthew 5: 28. He said even lusting after someone is the same as having sex with them. In fact, He said it would be better to gouge your eyes out than allow them to lead you into sexual sin. Now that’s full-on. God is asking us to keep not just our bodies clean, but our hearts and minds clean as well."

Okay. I'll play.
John 4
Jesus Talks With a Samaritan Woman
Read that. What did Jesus focus on? He told the woman how many and who with, but did He condemn her? No.
Instead He did what we are supposed to do. He preached the Gospel message.
So what's more important to you? Preaching a message of condemnation, or preaching the Gospel? Trying to tell yourself that you are living a good and " Clean Christian Lifestyle", or Preaching the Gospel? Knowing that you are nothing by all uncleanliness and filthiness without Him?
I don't know about you, but the Gospel message sounds nothing like what many Christians are talking about. I think that Christians in general need to rediscover what Jesus valued, how God sees things, rather than attempting to appear 'clean' to men.

NOwhere. Absolutely nowhere. What He *does* say is this:
Mark 7: 20 -23 "What comes out of a person is what defiles him. For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person." (the context is a discussion of foods that are "clean" or "unclean", and Jesus is explaining that what we eat simply passes out of the body: what makes us unclean comes from within).
So, yes, He does care, and it does matter to God. There are a number of references besides that one (check an online concordance such as the one at biblegateway.com), but that was the one that came to mind.

I don't think this subject was addressed specifically in the Bible, but there is a lot about the morality of marriage.

It would seem to me that even an alien would know Jesus would care.

It would appear that your savior was woefully neglect on this subject. Not does he not mention who you should or should not "sleep with" but he doesn't even bother to condemn homosexuality. I guess he didn't think it was important.
