Mark your calendars... with your lavender pen.
How much am I paying for it?
Don’t forget Monkey Pox.
I’m plenty aware that not having homo sex greatly reduces the chance of getting AIDS.
“Specific communities?”
You mean like homosexual men who hang out at public restrooms and ******** each other?
I remember when it was GRID (Gay-Related Immune Disorder). I stopped caring a long time ago. It’s very easy not to get.
Say no to the Poo-Poo
Funds were formerly "washed" through USAID, so hopefully nothing going forward.
Get it right, bigot! It's now called "Monkey Pox, formerly known as M-Pox, formerly known as Monkey Pox."
“In dollars, or common sense?” h/t John Goodman
DuckDuckGo though, lists it on the second tier, while Bing lists it as #8.
Due to the nature of this, and the source links being almost all to the CDC, this indicates a bias.
God made man and women distinctively different yet uniquely compatible and complementary, and only joined them together in marriage - as the Lord Jesus Himself specified (Mt. 19:4–6) - and Scripture only condemns homosexual relations wherever they are manifestly dealt with, by design and decree, precept and in principle.
And homosexual relations have been tragically primarily responsible for close to href="https://peacebyjesuscom.blogspot.com/2019/10/negative-effects-of-homosexual.html">. 80% of new HIV cases among men and close to 800,000 American deaths, though such is not even the decisive reason why homosexual relations are wrong.
Yet there is still room at the cross for all who will come to God in repentance and faith, and trust in the Divine Son of God sent by the Father, the risen Lord Jesus, to save them on His account, by His sinless shed blood, and thus be baptized and live for Him. Acts 10:36-47
I’m just hoping that homosexual month (June) is over.
What is HIV and AIDS? I’ve never heard of either.
I’m sure glad we have an awareness day.
I’m having a hell of a time with all these pronouns. LOL.
This is a prime example of preaching to the choir. NOBODY but those who willfully put themselves in these high-risk groups cares a wit about these "days," much less even knows about them.
They can save time and money and ONLY focus on what they term "specific communities". The general public doesn't need to be reminded how this is caused.
“Everybody’s got AIDS!”
You and me both. I can’t stand Fag month.
