WHAT’S WRONG WH BEG “GAY”? HERE’S WHAT THEY DON’T TELL YOU -- AND ’S REALLY DISTURBG.

As Gabriel Rotello—thor of Sexual Elogy: AIDS and the Dty of Gay Men and founr of OutWeek Magaze—wrote, “sexual brotherhood of promiscuy … any abandonment of that promiscuy would amount to a munal betrayal of gargantuan proportns.

Rotello also said, “A stranger to gay culture, unaware of the realy of AIDS, might believe om much of the gay prs that HIV fectn was a sort of elixir that produced high self-teem, solved long-standg psychologil and substance abe problems, and enhanced physil appearance … creatg the subnsc imprsn that fectn—the ‘penalty’ of unsafe sex—is really not so bad after all.

IS BEG GAY A S?

If homosexual “marriage” is universally accepted as the prent step sexual “eedom, ” what logil arguments n be ed to stop the next steps of ct, pedophilia, btialy, and other forms of unnatural behavr? The railroadg of same-sex “marriage” on the Amerin people mak creasgly clear what homosexual activist Pl Varnell wrote the Chigo Free Prs:"The gay movement, whether we acknowledge or not, is not a civil rights movement, not even a sexual liberatn movement, but a moral revolutn aimed at changg people's view of homosexualy.

And I thk Pl 1 Corthians 6:9-10 lists a very unual phrase about homosexualy where he says, "Those who do such thgs"-and he lists along wh greed and vetons and other ss, so 's not unique by self this-"those who do such thgs will not enter the kgdom of heaven.

GAY CULTURE HAS GROWN TOXIC WH UNCHECKED PRIVILEGE. IT'S TIME FOR TO RET

2) As I reflect on Romans 1 and the way Pl unpacks the problem wh homosexualy, appears to me that Pl is sayg somethg like this: When you exchange the glory of God for idols, the ma one that you exchange the glory of God for is yourself. Although s unlikely that the biblil thors had any notn of sexual orientatn (for example, the term homosexual wasn't even ed until the late 19th century) for many people of fah, the Bible is looked to for timels guidance on what means to honor God wh our liv; and this most certaly clus our sexualy.

” In askg, “What do the Bible say about homosexualy” (or more appropriately stated, “what do the Bible say about attractn to someone of the same sex, ”) our task is to explore what the relevant biblil passag on the topic meant their origal ntext and what they mean for today. In elementary and middle schools, is now fashnable to ll onelf “gay” or “bi” or e any number of other faddish sexual labels whout any real unrstandg of their meang—or of the moral and eternal implitns. The realy is at polar oppos to this riture: homosexual and lbian relatnships are typilly characterized by stabily, promiscuy, and unhealthy and risky sex practic, factors that greatly crease the cince of ser and curable sexually transmted diseas (STDs), cludg hepatis, HPV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and AIDS.

10 ANTI-GAY MYTHS DEBUNKED

The realy is que oppose to this riture which was recently nced by the homosexual newspaper New York Bla News: Reports at a natnal nference about sexually transmted diseas dite that gay men are the hight risk group for several of the most ser diseas.... Scientists believe that the creased number of sexually tranmted diseas (STD) s is the rult of an crease risky sexual practic by a growg number of gay men who believe HIV is no longer a life-threateng illns.

Dpe two s of tensive efforts to te homosexuals agast the dangers of acquired immunoficiency syndrome (AIDS) and other stds, the cince of unsafe sexual practic that often rult var diseas is on the rise. · A study prented July 13, 2000 at the XIII Internatnal aids Conference Durban, South Ai disclosed that a signifint number of homosexual and bisexual men wh hiv "ntue to engage unprotected sex wh people who have no ia they uld be ntractg HIV. "[4] Rearchers om the Universy of California, San Francis found that thirty-six percent of homosexuals engagg unprotected oral, anal, or vagal sex failed to disclose that they were HIV posive to sual sex partners.

Another CDC study of 1, 942 homosexual and bisexual men wh HIV found that 19 percent had at least one episo of unprotected anal sex--the riskit sexual behavr-- 1998 and 1997, a 50 percent crease om the prev two years.
