I must be missing something. In the graphic, there are 2 categories for “Heterosexual Contact.” One shows 3% and the other shows 11%. Is there a word missing or am I in need of more coffee?

You had me looking. See top where it says Male and Female. The bottom section is for the latter.

ALWAY include to the two groups “MMSC” and “MMSC & IDU” together. They are separated to lessen the impact of the study results on sodomites alone.

So, 81% + 3% is 84% of HIV infections caused by male-to-male sexual contact.

Wow. 11% for women. I wonder if this means they have had sex with HIV-positive homosexual men but are still classified as “heterosexual”?

why do fags always want to tell other people about their faggotry?

When their sexual perversion is the very center of their lives and identities, what would you expect?

Someplace the CDC inquires on that. Meanwhile,

"in 2019, among transgender adults and adolescents, the largest percentage (93%) of diagnoses of HIV infections was for transgender MTF. And in 2019, diagnoses of HIV infection among adolescent and young adult males (85%) and females (12%) accounted for approximately 97% of HIV diagnoses (Table 8b") (https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/basics/statistics.html; https://web.archive.org/web/20210707083722/https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/library/reports/hiv-surveillance/vol-32/content/special-focus-profiles.html)

Note that the focused of my stats here, rather than that of other great iniquities, is due/is a reaction to the impenitent promotion of homosexual relations, and push for required affirmation.

Now ask ChaptGpt what reaction could be expected from the government and the public to a consensual Christian religious practice that was historically responsible (over the course of 40+ years) for approx. 80% of new HIV cases among men, and over 60% among all adults, and with taxpayers spending billions for funding prophylactic means and treatment?

From what I have seen, the CDC also has ceased from publicizing stats specific such as (now deleted),

(https://web.archive.org/web/20240705162819if_/https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/images/library/reports/hiv-surveillance/vol-33/infographics/cdc-hiv-diagnoses-by-gender-infographic-1920x1080.png)

And I must increasingly go to archive.org for other images and stats that the CDC used to publish. Newer versions tend to focus on race, which does blur the extent of the STDs.

And of course, Google does not show my collection, nor Bing, though from my search now I see 3 top results from Bing that deal with STDS

The chart should have used colors that were farther separated from each other in hue.

Oops. That's on me.

I completely missed the color difference. If I had noticed it, I would have seen the bit about the females.

Actually, the CDC has actually provided more recent stats, as this just come in this week:

So these esteemed medical institutions are blaming homos’ woes on ‘scrimination and stigma. Not on their faggotry or other bad choices. Only in clown world, folks. Only in clown world.

True, as it typically is in such charts. There must be a manual that web site authors follow that warns against using colors that stand too much in contrast, or do not render right on smartphones. Which device I believe has degraded the Internet.

But I like a variety of bright colors. One example, by the grace of God: https://peacebyjesus.net/booksofthebible.html

Which Google ignores (as it does most of my site) - at least the first 30 results (as far as i went), even if I search the opening sentence - The 66 Books of the Bible Categorized and sectioned for easier memorization, with short summations - even if I place it in quotes
"Your search did not match any documents" It simply does not exist according to Google. Likewise Brave.

Yet both DuckDuckGo and Bing place that results for that search term (even w/out quotes), as the top result. I do not think it is due to the colors.

Only in clown world.

I can illustrate some of that!


 

 
 
 
 


Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them;

they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it.

Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

================================================

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight.

They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.

================================================

Ezekiel 16:49-50  "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom:

She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.

They were haughty and did detestable things before me.

 Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.

 


Romans 1     New American Bible (Revised Edition) (NABRE)
 
 18 The wrath of God is indeed being revealed from heaven against every impiety and wickedness of those who suppress the truth by their wickedness. 19 For what can be known about God is evident to them, because God made it evident to them. 20 Ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes of eternal power and divinity have been able to be understood and perceived in what he has made. As a result, they have no excuse; 21 for although they knew God they did not accord him glory as God or give him thanks. Instead, they became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened. 22 While claiming to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for the likeness of an image of mortal man or of birds or of four-legged animals or of snakes.
 

24 Therefore, God handed them over to impurity through the lusts of their hearts for the mutual degradation of their bodies. 25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and revered and worshiped the creature rather than the creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 Therefore, God handed them over to degrading passions. Their females exchanged natural relations for unnatural, 27 and the males likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one another. Males did shameful things with males and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their perversity. 28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God handed them over to their undiscerning mind to do what is improper. 29 They are filled with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy, murder, rivalry, treachery, and spite. 


2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. 
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


What kind of a people are we;

that we allow men dressed in womens clothes

to pervert the minds of little children?


But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

  9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
      Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. 
But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...
