The policy paper, titled, “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Health Disparities: Executive Summary of a Policy Position Paper From the American College of Physicians,” places the blame for the increased rates of anxiety, suicide, and substance or alcohol abuse that are common among homosexuals squarely on marriage protection statutes and other pro-family laws.

No, the alcohol and substance abuse, suicide and other related issues stem from the fact that it is an immoral and unhealthy choice.

Absolutely no MSM coverage of the massive LGBT suicide risk and the repeated killing of many others as LGBT’s try and succeed to take their own sinful life.

Health Risks of the Homosexual Lifestyle

The current media portrayal of gay and lesbian relationships is that they are as healthy, stable and loving as heterosexual marriages — or even more so.1 Medical associations are promoting somewhat similar messages.2 Sexual relationships between members of the same sex, however, expose gays, lesbians and bisexuals to extreme risks of Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs), physical injuries, mental disorders and even a shortened life span. There are five major distinctions between gay and heterosexual relationships, with specific medical consequences. They are:

Levels of Promiscuity read more
Similar extremes of promiscuity have not been documented among lesbians. However, an Australian study found that 93 percent of lesbians reported having had sex with men, and lesbians were 4.5 times more likely than heterosexual women to have had more than 50 lifetime male sex partners. Any degree of sexual promiscuity carries the risk of contracting STDs.

Physical Health read more
Male Homosexual Behavior
Female Homosexual Behavior
Common sexual practices among gay men lead to numerous STDs and physical injuries, some of which are virtually unknown in the heterosexual population. Lesbians are also at higher risk for STDs. In addition to diseases that may be transmitted during lesbian sex, a study at an Australian STD clinic found that lesbians were three to four times more likely than heterosexual women to have sex with men who were high-risk for HIV.

Mental Health read more
It is well established that there are high rates of psychiatric illnesses, including depression, drug abuse, and suicide attempts, among gays and lesbians. This is true even in the Netherlands, where gay, lesbian and bisexual (GLB) relationships are far more socially acceptable than in the U.S. Depression and drug abuse are strongly associated with risky sexual practices that lead to serious medical problems.

Life Span read more
The only epidemiological study to date on the life span of gay men concluded that gay and bisexual men lose up to 20 years of life expectancy.

Monogamy read more
Monogamy, meaning long-term sexual fidelity, is rare in GLB relationships, particularly among gay men. One study reported that 66 percent of gay couples reported sex outside the relationship within the first year, and nearly 90 percent if the relationship lasted five years.

So, the homosexuals have taken control of the ACP as they did the APA back in the 70s-80s?

May 14, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) - The nation’s largest association for internal medicine doctors this week officially endorsed homosexual “marriage” and blamed marriage protection laws for damaging the physical and mental health of people who identify as LGBT.

Further justifying my distrust of the medical industry.

It’s clearly the goal of the Democrat (aka Communist) Party to destroy America. Heck, they hardly even try to deny it anymore.

They seek to normalize behavior our Bible-believing forefathers thought should be punishable by death. They want to make every American dependent on government handouts and so work very hard to destroy decent jobs and discourage job creators.

Wealth and success are punished and failure and depravity are rewarded. Starvation and death from disease – God’s punishment for sloth and decadence, have been removed as obstacles to those who want to commit grave sins. That’s because 40% is STOLEN from the righteous so that the reprobates can be supported and validated.

It’s time to return this country to Biblical worldview and values that were its founding principles. People won’t like that. It would require a lot of executions for re-criminalized behavior. And we’d have to sit back and let people fail miserably (even die) so that they can serve as an example to others. Some of the worst would still be saved, of course – but only because someone deemed them worthy of voluntary Christian charity. We would, however, be spared having to support whole “communities” built upon a culture of taking handouts others are FORCED to give them.

Follow this path and in a generation or two, the USA might once again receive the blessings of The Almighty.

“Without God, everything is permissible”. Dostoevsky (Sodomites know better than God and Newton and the most brilliant minds in the history of mankind—ha ha)

The so-called physicians throw out Science, Biology and “pretend” that they are god and they can push the unnatural, the bizarre, the irrational utopia of Marx on little children. Yes, you allow perverts to raise your children (TV/Public School curricula) and you will get irrational, (dumb) kids who believe if they are boys, that they are girls). It is called “operant conditioning” which works on all children, if parents don’t unplug their children and supply them with REAL positive role models and real life experiences (not artificial environments/screens).

Same with dogs-—remove them from their Natural environment too early and they are warped forever. Worse for children with their complex brain and psycho-sexual critical periods, which lasts for a DECADE. Destroy Natural/Normal and you warp that children or traumatize the child forever—and get Adam Lanzas who have man/boy porn all over their computer.

These “physicians” are DUMB and are demonic and liars and trying to force (condition/mind control)) children into a Marxian Worldview, (totally irrational where humans are godless objects only) where Slavery is Freedom, all biological connections are severed, and Vice is Virtue and where ALL people are just animals to be herded, culled and killed when and where the State commands.

Parents: take back the minds of your own children and grandchildren and don’t let them rot their minds by the Sodomites’ “entertainment” which will destroy Reason, Logic and create an artificial worldview, and take away from Real Life experiences and human interactions which make them Logical and truly human and create Virtue. Without Virtue, civil society collapses and that is why the Marxists are destroying the minds of children. All they have left to do is WAIT for the older generation to die off and then the children will have NO WAY OUT of the Leviathan.

Have them READ for intellectual development-—not the Shades of Gray rot to normalize pagan, satanic ethics in women-—but the Great Books which include the Bible.

Historically, homosexuality became not-a-mental-illness in 1973/1974 when the American Psychiatric Association, lead by gay psychiatrists, decided to declare it not-a-mental-illness. When the matter was put to a vote before the AOA membership, about 1/3 of psychiatrists voted that it was not-a-mental-illness (there were many abstentions).

There is little funding for and consequently there are relatively few studies regarding mental and physical illness in gays.

"Less than 3 percent of the U.S. population identify themselves as gay, lesbian or bisexual, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported Tuesday in the first large-scale government survey measuring Americans’ sexual orientation. The National Health Interview Survey, which is the government’s premier tool for annually assessing Americans’ health and behaviors, found that 1.6 percent of adults self-identify as gay or lesbian, and 0.7 percent consider themselves bisexual."

At 2.3% -- these are truly mice that roar.

Heaven forbid they keep their traps shut and actually endorse things that have to do with the medical field. I am so freaking sick of this.

Honestly, if a person, an American citizen, wishes to try "reformative" therapy; then, that should be their decision and they should be allowed to pursue it, if they wish. No one is forcing them.

This is the Gaystapo trying desperately to silence any and all forms of criticism of their "lifestyle".

So let me get this straight ...

If I have unwanted seem-sex attraction it's not OK for me to attempt to fix it through some kind of therapy, but if I think I'm really a woman then insurance companies and/or taxpayers should be forced to pay for the removal of my unwanted shmekel?

Good thing I don't take any of these lunatics seriously.

You can’t change from homosexual to heterosexual but you can change from man to woman or woman to man. So if they don’t want to be homosexual, change their gender and voila. Physicians make a lot more money that way.
