Morbidity, Mortality, and Morality:
the Social Impact of Homosexuality

A striking but little-discussed aspect of homosexual activity today is it's associated reduction in behavioral control. We all have forbidden sexual drives that we restrain, but for those engaging in homosexual behavior, that restraint seems much reduced.

One result has been blatant promiscuity among homosexuals.

A 1978 study reported that:

75 percent of male homosexuals had been with 100 or more partners;
28 percent, the largest subcategory, reported more than 1,000 partners;
79 percent said more than half their partners were strangers; and
79 percent said more than half their partners were men with whom they had sex only once.

Another survey 16 years later found that while...

67.6 percent of men and 75.5 percent of women had only one sex partner in the previous year, only 2.6 percent of men and 1.2 percent of women engaging in same-sex relationships had thus limited themselves.

Supporters of homosexuality, and advocates of gay marriage, rarely acknowledge the many partners gays have including those living together as couples.

The medical dangers of homosexuality are also underemphasized.

Its devotees show much higher rates of sexually transmitted disease, substance abuse, and mental illness.

While they comprise only about 2 percent of the population, homosexuals represented 21 percent of hepatitis B cases in 1988, and 44 percent of new human immuno deficiency virus (HIV) cases between 2000 and 2003. They contract syphilis at a rate three to four times higher than nonhomosexuals.

Anal intercourse causes hemorrhoids, anal fissures, anorectal trauma, and retained foreign bodies, and creates high risk for anal cancer. Among male homosexuals engaging in oral-to-anal contact, an extremely high rate of parasitic and other intestinal infections exists.

Homosexuality is also associated with higher mortality.

A major Canadian medical center found the life expectancy at age 20 years for gay and bisexual men was 8 to 20 years less than that for all men.

It further estimated that nearly half of today.s gay and bisexual 20-year-olds would not reach their 65th birthday.

While the AMA's official statement on homosexuality mentions the need to work nonjudgmentally with the gay and lesbian community, in order to understand its members, medical needs, it says nothing about the unique nature of those needs or the promiscuous, disease-spreading behavior patterns that aggravate them.

It's encyclopedia article also omits any mention of associated medical dangers. And even though homosexuals seeking to change often succeed in doing so (frequently with the aid of therapy), the
AMA statement, by publicly opposing reparative or conversion therapy based on the assumption that the patient should change his/her homosexual orientation, seems to take an implicit
moral position of denying that such change should occur.

American concepts and attitudes about homosexuality have changed significantly in recent decades. Most of society and the medical profession now view it as an acceptable alternate lifestyle: a biologically determined, permanent orientation, rather than a learned, experiential, and often changeable choice.

The concept of homosexuality as a permanent orientation is, however, without scientific validation;

..... the notion is entirely politically grounded.

One effect of this new view has been to understate the medical and societal harm produced by the promiscuous sexual practices typically associated with homosexuality.

This is serious..... :nono:

While I don't argue with the health dangers of male/male sexual intercourse, I don't know how much credence this 1978 study actually has. One, it's over 30 years old. Two, who is the sample population of homosexuals surveyed. Stats can say whatever you want them to say but it doesn't make them representative.

That's neither here nor there. The issue I take with the 10-20 partners/week statement as part of the gay lifestyle is that it's unfounded and assumed to just be a natural byproduct of the gay lifestyle. It is well (and better) documented that black people have the highest rates (not absolute number) of incarceration, poverty, out-of-wedlock births. So with this being known, shouldn't someone say the lifestyle of being a black person starts with being born to a teen mother into a life of poverty and eventually ends in jail or with more out-of-wedlock births. I should think not.

It is the same with homosexuals. No one is arguing the sinful nature of it. And no I don't believe God created anyone to be gay. However, that doesn't make it right for "loving Christians" to make unfounded claims about them to show just how wrong they are by making them seem like a bunch of happy, screwing rabbitts when for so many this is NOT the case. Deal with the issue at hand instead of adding on to it by leaps and bounds just to make the alarm ring louder.

I wish I could thank you a million times! :yep::yep::yep:
 
We as believers can no longer hide and ignore what is going on in Christandom today, neither can we allow ourselvs to be pulled in by Charisma and Charm.

We must study the WORD for ourselves (as so many wise women on this board have stressed time and time again), so that when we hear hearsy we will, by the HOLY SPIRT, detect it and close our ears to it, even when it comes from the "popular preachers on tv and such".

We must develop a TRUE relationship with GOD THE FATHER that we will be able to discern false prophets. One thing that is assured, they will FALL, you cannot pervert the WORD OF GOD and get away with it!!!!

Glad you bumped this. Here are the latest statistics (2009)

http://www.avert.org/usa-transmission-gender.htm

Men are more affected by HIV and AIDS in the United States than women. Male adult or adolescents accounted for 3 out of 4 new HIV diagnoses and new AIDS diagnoses in the U.S. in 2009.

The HIV transmission route leading to the most AIDS diagnosis in 2009 was male-to-male sexual contact, followed by heterosexual contact and injection drug use.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) publish HIV statistics for 40 states and 5 dependent areas with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting. AIDS statistics include all 50 states and the District of Columbia, as well as the 5 dependent areas.

HIV statistics
CDC statistics show that in 2008, 73% of persons living with a diagnosis of HIV infection were male adults or adolescents.

Over half (63%) of adult and adolescent males living with an HIV diagnosis in 2008 became infected through male-to-male sexual contact, around 17% of those diagnosed were infected through injecting drug use and 12% through heterosexual contact.

The majority of female adult and adolescents living with an HIV diagnosis in 2008 were infected with the virus through heterosexual contact (73%). Most of the remaining females were infected through injecting drug use.
Of the 10,284 children living with a diagnosis of HIV infection in 2008, 9,038 were infected through mother-to-child transmission.

Estimated adult and adolescent new HIV diagnoses in 2009 by transmission route and gender

Transmission route Male Female Male-to-male sexual contact 24,132 - Injection drug use 2,652 1,520 Male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use 1,157 - Heterosexual contact 4,551 8,706 Other 47 29 Total* 32,538 10,255 * Because totals are calculated independently of the subpopulations, the values in each column may not sum exactly to the figure in the 'Total' row

AIDS statistics

Adult and adolescent males accounted for three-quarters of people diagnosed with AIDS in 2009. Between 2006 and 2009 the annual rate of new AIDS diagnoses decreased slightly among both females and males.

Estimated adult and adolescent AIDS diagnoses in 2009 and cumulative diagnoses since the beginning of the epidemic through 2009, by transmission route and gender


Transmission route 2009 diagnoses Cumulative diagnoses Male Female Male Female Male-to-male sexual contact 17,171 - 535,570 - Injection drug use 3,207 1,982 173,351 90,102 Male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use 1,608 - 73,006 - Heterosexual contact 3,956 6,740 59,593 131,886 Other 159 157 96,977 7,185 Total* 26,102 8,879 882,074

:nono: ...male to male sexual contact is the #1 spread of AIDS/HIV leading by 74%...

Thank you for bringing this up-to-date and dispelling the lie that Christians make unfounded claims to prove the sin of homosexuality. The truth is we do not have to make claims...the evidence is speaking for its self loud and clear.

Their 'defense' by use of denial is only hurting the situation, not helping those suffering from it.

Sadder still...

Are the people who jump to the defence of male/male sexual activity; minimizing it's peril. I wonder how much of this could have been avoided by just admittig that gay sex is what it is...dangerous.

And the government wants to legalize this deadly activity into marriage... :nono::nono::nono:

The government is just 'stupid'. Just plain stupid. They are simply sealing the coffins for those in this lifestyle.

I don't want anyone to suffer like this. This is not what God intended. No Christian wants to see harm upon another human being. :nono:
