Romans 1:27. God is not mocked.

It is all because of George W. Bush! He did not endorse their perversity, thus he caused this increase in the wages of their sin. (h’mmm is there also a minimum wage for sin?)

Could this be the ultraviolent type of syphilis on steroids? The homos have been giving this virus a good workout.

canker ping!

butt butt being gay is normal and heterosexuals are just as bad. Those who see themselves as not heterosexual are far more promiscuous as are those who are not monogamous which is why they get more diseases. I mean you would think that the common behavior of gays picking up dates in public restrooms would be a hint that something is probably not normal. I know. I know everything gay is good because they were born to screw 1000s of partners in a lifetime.

Gays are pushing to be allowed to donate blood. They want to make sure that when their drug resistant diseases kick in the normal population is swept up in it as well.

.. prevention efforts that have largely worked on heterosexual people have not resonated as well with homosexual populations.

Australian study 10 years ago had a sampling size of 9,000 men:

50% had had over 100 sexual partners

15% had had over 1,000

PONDER ON THAT ONE A BIT.

[TalBlack]

I can recall when the Health Dept. cared about health and left the politics to politicians. It’s amazing how far and how quickly this nation has slid into the gutter.

[Gay State Conservative]

I was doing some research on a public health matter and signed on to the CDC’s website.One of the featured topics I happened to see on its main page was regarding syphilis in pervert men.It said that pervert males (about 0.5% of the population) accounted for about two thirds of the nation's syphilis cases.Must be all those “gay pride” parades and bath houses.

[Jeff Chandler]

Those wacky Democrats!

[upchuck]

Not wanting to seem sanctimonious, but God is not mocked.

[Mastador1]

Maybe it’s rising for the same reason AIDS did, because they are a bunch of immoral promiscuous Bitches, and no I don’t mean immoral because they are gay I mean immoral because of indiscriminate sex with a multitude of partners. The same standard I would use for Heterosexuals behaving the same way.

[Chode]

Filthy Disease Ridden Queers...

[Mashood]

... and we’re suppose to consider these nasty filthy disease ridden gay people as normal?

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

It hasn’t been mentioned, but a lot of the “new” syphilis is drug resistant. By 2003, a large percentage of cases could no longer be treated with a pill alternative to injected penicillin.

“Antibiotic resistance has developed to a number of agents, including macrolides, clindamycin, and rifampin. Ceftriaxone, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, may be as effective as penicillin-based treatment.”

While not yet as resistant as is drug resistant gonorrhea, such venereal diseases can often work in concert with each other. For example, a chancre on genitalia can lead to much easier transmission of other disease; and the immuno-suppressant effects of AIDS can make transmission easier as well.

Nature has a way of punishing unnatural sex.
