...there have always been a large percentage of homosexuals who do not engage in this activity.
I think that you're confusing homosexuals with people who live the "homosexual lifestyle". I've asked before what the "homosexual lifestyle" entails, and I've been told that it involves promiscious, anonymous sex -- sometimes with underage partners -- and usually heavy drinking and drug use. Note the wording of the original article posted here, referring to a "homosexual culture" and "heterosexual culture".
With that definition you can understand what the problem is and why it should be stopped.
Of course, given the above definition of "homosexual lifestyle", I must say that I've never actually met any homosexuals who really live the "homosexual lifestyle". Well, maybe one or two -- not very interesting people though. It really makes me wonder where the term comes from because while it's true that anyone who engages in the homosexual lifestyle would very likely be a homosexual, it's not the case -- as one might assume -- that a homosexual is likely to be living the homosexual lifestyle. Still, I think that if more people realised that most homosexuals don't actually live a "homosexual lifestyle" they'd have a better understanding of what you're talking about.

See the CDC link in post 115. That backs up your assertion, to some degree. Also read post 92. I think this is the real reason why social conservatives try to spin homosexuality into something it isnt.
And thank you for your post.
