Five minutes of searching....This is not something I've heard before. You must have some link to a study showing a statistically significant leap in risk for all those afflictions that is caused by living the "homosexual" lifestyle". Not bashing, I'm truly interested. Also, I'd like to see one of these marketing campaigns you mention. Is it that *** Grimace from McDonalds? I knew it!
The Bible is a storybook meant to help us live decent lives. It's neither history nor law. If you're going to be a hardass about one aspect I would hope you stick to all of the other equally ridiculous rules, such as:I guess believing in The Lord and the bible makes me a ignorant Christian
First, the Biblical teaching that homosexuality is a sin is not a human prejudice—it is the Word of God!!!
Second, if we are to truly live according to the law that Christ gave us, then we absolutely must preach against all forms of sin which undermine society, corrupt the morals of our youth and bring God's judgment upon our families and nation.
Third, the problem of homosexuality is not rooted in fear and lack of awareness by Christians, but rather, it is rooted in the homosexual's lack of fear for God, for “by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil” (Proverbs 16:6).
Fourth, Christians aren't hiding ignorance and prejudice behind a guise of morality; but rather, homosexuals have rejected God's morality. I dare you to find even one homosexual who takes a stand for morals.
Fifth, the religious community aren't the one's abusing the Scriptures; but rather, it is homosexuals who are trying desperately to change the Word of God into a lie to legitimatize a sin that is abominable in the sight of God almighty.
romans 1:24-25,
A quotation form the second link you posted, and this is the SECOND sentence in that link....Five minutes of searching....
What does that sentence mean to you?“These rates are staggering, and highlight the cost of pervasive anti-gay stigmatization and victimization,
Means that people are always looking for a scapegoat to heap their problems on,A quotation form the second link you posted, and this is the SECOND sentence in that link....
What does that sentence mean to you?
Yep, so they blame the gays for societies ills, and that is the result. Well done.Means that people are always looking for a scapegoat to heap their problems on,
Nope. I don't blame gays for anything. I say live and let live. However when they start to promote a knowingly dangerous and destructive lifestyle to our children or the public in general that's where I start to take issue.Yep, so they blame the gays for societies ills, and that is the result. Well done.
And how are the "gays" dangerous and destructive to the children or public? You keep saying these things, I'm waiting for the evidence. I'd also like you to again look at this...Nope.

and actually give a real effort this time. Surely you can do that, after all, it was YOUR link.“These rates are staggering, and highlight the cost of pervasive anti-gay stigmatization and victimization,
Disagreeing with someone, or what someone does is NOT hateful, it is simply disagreeing.Try again. They are all hateful.
First off, don't twist my words. I said "promote a knowingly dangerous and destructive lifestyle to our children or the public in general". I didn't say gays were dangerous, their behavior is, and that is simply fact. It's one thing to be accepting of gays, which I am, it's another thing to try and pretend that their lifestyle is simply another healthy lifestyle when it's anything but. That's where the danger lies and that is the message that is being pumped in to our schools and in to our homes via the MSM. There is never mention of the health risks involved with homosexuality and that is not only irresponsible but dangerous to impressionable minds.And how are the "gays" dangerous and destructive to the children or public?

This is an opinion, I only draw my conclusions on this subject from facts.“These rates are staggering, and highlight the cost of pervasive anti-gay stigmatization and victimization,
flat9999 said:You can say that without consequence, but only if you are NOT a Christian.
Muslims will call for a public stoning, Jews forbid it as an abomination, a Christian says that he disagrees with it.
Only one of these responses is considered hateful. Go figure.

Your links did no such thing, it's obvious you didn't read them, as the second sentence of the first link I clicked on challenged your point. I am not twisting anyone's words. No need for that here, you're doing a fine job yourself.First off, don't twist my words. I said "promote a knowingly dangerous and destructive lifestyle to our children or the public in general".

Looking at numbers like 1 in 5 gay men are infected with HIV is your evidence. The evidence is in the numbers and there are many other examples I could point to. I just gave you a bunch of links to statistics that prove my point.
You must be new here.This will end this retardation...
Because that is their tactic to squelch any dissenting opinion. They used to call people witches and burn them at the stake if they didn't like what you said. The Communists would haul you off to a gulag if you dared speak against the state message. Now they just try to shame you, ruin your career, and drag your reputation through the mud to accomplish their goals. It's cultural Marxism and that's just how it works.Why is there this need for every person in America to agree with and support homosexuality or else they're a bigot?
I'm not talking about HPV. I'm talking about HIV and the astronomical chance you will contract it if you engage in homosexual sex. Good try though to change the subject. How about the fact that gays, who make up only 2% of the population, account for 63% of primary and secondary syphilis cases in the United States. How about the astronomical rates of chlamydia, gonorrhea, and hepatitis? Don't you think promoting that type of lifestyle to children as healthy is a bit misleading?Your links did no such thing, it's obvious you didn't read them, as the second sentence of the first link I clicked on challenged your point.

1-5, wow. So what? Wanna take a guess how many people have HPV? Sounds like you need to take a statistics course.
Of course you're not talking about HPV, because the fact that almost every sexually active person will get it at some time will ruin your point. Classic cherry picking. Not changing the subject at all. Again, I'd like to know how you equate it to the "gay" lifestyle. Is unprotected sex the "gay" lifestyle? Is it having many partners? Because those are the true reasons for the rates of STD infection, not the partner they choose. Are two uninfected gay men in a monogamous relationship at a higher risk for infection then a monogamous heterosexual couple? If not, then your point is invalid.I'm not talking about HPV.

Not "all the time." In approximatly 10% of nature from what I've read, although I would agree with the studies that put it at a far lesser percentage. Yes, it's natural, but it's a naturally occurring abberation of the normal state of things. So because someone's faith and belief system is that it's not "normal", A&E puts him on hiatus? Sorry, but that's the last time I watch such an intolerant network. Letters to advertisers to follow.it occurs in nature all the time..If evidence exists for homosexual relationships in nature, then by definition it is natural. Correct?
