Actually, some might argue that homosexuality serves the purpose of keeping the population in check.

But even if that's true, we screwed that up by allowing them to have kids through artificial insemination, etc.

This is something that I have been saying for many, many years.

Actually, some might argue that homosexuality serves the purpose of keeping the population in check.

To which I ask, How so? And what force determines this necessary "need" to check the population?

I doooon't know.... I saw TV show on the black death that discussed a genetic mutation in Europeans that made 30% of them immuned to the plague (like sickle cell and malaria, without the downside). They claimed that this mutation also allows people to be immuned to AIDS.

So if they are correct, we now have a new form of Typhoid Mary (in which we are told we must have total sympathy for.)

If this virus effects a certain amount of our population, will we start to see it be a major problem in the hetero population as it is in Africa? I can't understand people who say it's a homosexual or IV abuser disease when in Africa its truly not. It doesn't make sense. Females can clearly catch it from sexual encounters.

I think it's just a matter of infection rate and that's really something we shouldn't ignore, although we will.

Some claim the first now know case of AIDS was a British sailor who "encountered" a Morrocan prostitute in the 20's or 30's.(I don't remember, might have been earlier.) (of coarse the diagnosis was made decades later using saved tissue specimens.)

So it was in Africa 70+ years ago and look where they are now. I can't help to wonder what it will be like here some 40 years from now when we also have asymptomatic carriers.

I think it may have a purpose. Just like other kinds of defects and illnesses. Few of us come out "perfect" and we each get a certain cross to bear. Homosexuals for what ever reason might not be meant to marry and raise children, but they need to deal with their temptations and find a way to live a moral life. Someone cursed with too much heterosexuality may have some problems living in a faithful marriage, but that is the cross they must bear. Some of us will suffer different kinds of pain, loss of a parent at an early age, loss of a child.

Regardless of one's religious views on homosexuality, I can't think of any other "Life style" that young people could choose to engage in that would totally ruin their lives for ever, that is being forced on society as being normal and benign.

What self-respecting loving parent would encourage their children to take part in any activity that would put them at risk for deseases, decrease their life span, increase their chances for drug addication, rape, assault, and early death?

Yet, those loving parents are demonized as homophobic and mean spirited and intolerant.

Shame on all of them.
