What's "homo" marriage. Last I checked, homo simply means "man" in Latin. Could you have meant homespun marriage, which would mean marriage between our human species?

Stop being a bigot and specify without using idiotic slang-ivied terms.

For sure I know that homosexuality and adultery are not frowned upon in Wicca

Wiccans have many weird beliefs and sexual practices, which include the following:

1. Wiccans believe swinging, or trading spouses for a night of sex, is morally acceptable.
2. Wiccans believe adultery is morally acceptable provided that a condom is worn.
3. Wiccans believe that sex with animals should be encouraged provided there is mutual love.

The law of Wicca is quite simple. 'If it harms none, do what you will". Basically, do anything you wish so long as it doesn't hurt yourself, another living thing, an object(setting fire to a building is a no-no), or Mother Earth. Wiccans also respect all the laws of man. So getting with a hooker, is not accepted. Gambling is legal, so a little here and there(as long as you know when to stop) is probably fine. Open marriages are between the two married people, and gay marriage is openly accepted. Many gay Wiccans have hand fasting ceremonies.

See this is one of those questions where if you asked it out in the open, you would either get smacked in the back of the head, back-handed, or a disappointing shake of the head walk-off.

Depends on where your from, me, I'd pop you in the back of the head.

Individual Wiccans have their own individual opinions on these things. We accept no doctrine or authority to dictate to us on these matters. We recognize and obey the law of the land. Apart from that, we do and think as we will.

Homosexuality is generally accepted by Wiccans, also civil partnerships. Speaking for myself, I support the movement to legalese homosexual marriage (not just civil partnerships).

Speaking for myself, I believe that adultery is wrong. However, I also believe that poly amorous relationships are not adulterous if all parties consent and agree on the ground rules.

I believe that gambling is immoral and I do not practise it myself. However, I accept other people's right to make their own free decisions.

So far as pr0situation goes, in my opinion it is immoral and debases women to the status of a commodity. Nevertheless, I do not believe it should be illegal.

As I said, other Wiccans have their own opinions - these are mine.

Wicca as a whole does not have a list of 'thou shalt nits." We are taught to make ethical and responsible decisions based on individual circumstances.

Wiccans are commonly accepting toward non-heterosexuals, and thus are commonly accepting of gay marriage.

Adultery is a breaking of vows and thus isn't encouraged. However, many Wiccans are accepting of a variety of non-traditional relationships, so long as they are done with forethought and involve only adult, consenting individuals.

Personally, I would say that gambling in and of itself is fine. It's an entertainment like any other. However, when someone becomes addicted to it, or starts making poor decisions on it (like gambling away a month's rent), then it's a problem. But the problem isn't the gambling...its the decisions made concerning it.
