Fox News ^ | 1-26-05 | Jennifer Warner

Risky sexual behavior among Americans is putting the public’s health at risk, according to a new CDC study.

Researchers found that the rates of early death and disability attributed to sexual behavior in the U.S. are triple those of any other industrialized country, and women bear the brunt of this public health burden.

Every single wart is caused by the papilloma virus. So it's pretty common.

Liberals suck.

And do other things too if you believe the article.

Oak Park sucks for sure. Nice houses, but I wouldn't bury my dog there.

"The study showed that sexual behavior accounted for nearly 30,000 deaths and around 20 million adverse health consequences in 1998, such as infertility, abortions, and sexually transmitted infections."

If the abortion is "an adverse health consequence" for the mother, what the heck is it for her child?

Now it is found down into the teen years because of early, promiscuous sex.

At least that's the speculation. There seems to be some correlation, which of course, is not causation.

We need a "SEX TAX" to recover the cost that we are all paying for the risky behavior of a few licentious people.

The correct approach would be to stop paying for things for others with stolen money.

(Bold type doesn't enhance the statement in the vast majority of the cases)

the sacrament of Viagra

Abortion is the true sacrament of the Sex religion.

There is also priesthood: those who practice Sex in a socially meaningful way, -- the movie stars.

The theologians are those who defend Sex publicly, -- ACLU lawyers.

Good one.

Viagra is the holy wafers. My mistake. Also birth control pills.

It is indeed a new religion if the meaning of religion is fervent belief in just anything.

The apostates and blasphemers are you and me.

All of this takes on some poignancy because if you talk to a Sexian he would declare that his worldview is entirely rational, and you are a religious fanatic who goes by medieval superstitions from Rome.

Well, it's like Russian Roulette. Especially with uncircumcised men (or that's what they used to say, anyway).

Of course not. I believe that if HIV/AIDS had been treated as a public health concern back in the late 70's

The first AIDS cases were diagnosed in 1981. We now know that the virus appeared in North America in 1977, and rapidly spread before the first cases appeared. Closing the bath houses in 1981 would have been a good thing to do (they were in fact closed in SF at some point in the early 1980s, I forget when), but would not have stopped the huge wave of AIDS cases of the late 1980s and early 1990s, since the virus has an incubation time of 10 years on average.

However, there were public health authorities who observed the extraordinary increase in promiscious homosexual behavior in the 1970s, and who voiced their fear of a public health disaster. Unfortunately, they were not heard or heeded.

Right, MAYBE it's like Russian Roulette. Maybe even more likely, but not anything like for sure.
