Homosexuality More Dangerous Than Smoking PHILADELPHIA, Apr. 3 /Christian Newswire/ -- Studies have shown that years of smoking shortens the lifespan of the smoker from 1 to 7 years. But analysis of the age of death in Norway and Denmark for gays who are legally married suggests that engaging in homosexual behavior reduces the lifespan by 24 years!
So reported Drs. Paul and Kirk Cameron at the annual convention of the Eastern Psychological Association on March 23.
"What justification is there for condemning smoking and endorsing homosexuality?" asked Dr. Paul Cameron, of the Family Research Institute, a Colorado-based think tank. "Today, all across the Western world, school children are being taught the acceptability of homosexuality and the wrongness of smoking.
According to the Cameron research, married gays and lesbians lived 24 fewer years than their conventionally married counterparts. In Denmark, the country with the longest history of gay marriage, for 1990-2002, married heterosexual men died at a median age of 74yr., while the 561 partnered gays died at an average age of 51.
In Norway, married heterosexual men died at an average age of 77 and the 31 gays at 52 yr. In Denmark, married women died at an average age of 78 yr. compared to 56 yr. for the 91 lesbians.
In Norway, women married to men died at an average age of 81. v. 56 for the 6 lesbians.
"The consistency of reduced lifespan for those engaging in homosexuality is significant," said Dr. Cameron. "The same pattern of early death turned up whether we looked at obituaries in the U.S. or deaths in marriage. Given the greatly reduced lifespan for homosexuals, school children should be strongly and consistently warned about the dangers of homosexuality even more so than smoking. Those school districts which are introducing pro-gay curricula need to rethink their priorities."
Paul Cameron, Ph.D. & Kirk Cameron, Ph.D., presented "Federal Distortion Of The Homosexual Footprint." Paul Cameron, a reviewer for the British Medical Journal, the Canadian Medical Association Journal, and the Postgraduate Medical Journal, has published over 40 scientific articles on homosexuality. The EPA, is the oldest regional Psychological Association in the United States. At its Philadelphia convention members presented the latest advances in scientific work to colleagues.

But, they won't, I'm afraid it too late.
WARNING: Homosexuality may be hazardous to your health.
Makes sense that “flaming” is more dangerous than smoking.
So, if you smoke and are gay you are doomed!.......
Cameron is always ridiculed by the gay lobby, but I have not seen analysis which refutes his findings. It seems like it would be a very easy thing to do. Where are all the studies of gay lifespans?
Of course, in the socially liberal mecca of Columbus where I live, this assertion generally elicits shocked gasps, accusations of homophobia/bigotry/close-mindedness, and impassioned defenses of the "gay" lifestyle.
In any case...YUCK!!!
For some reason, I’m reminded of Al Gore’s Global Warming stuff.
Thank you, TonyRo76, for the welcome!
Ironic, most homos smoke, also. So they are getting a double dose of big trouble.
You are right they won’t. You must respect what is dirty and nasty or you are a bigot.
LOL! As if we didn’t already know that! But, I guess it needs to be touted a bit!
I haven’t seen those studies. How many would rather have their child smoke than engage in sex (homosexual or heterosexual) with numerous partners?
I guess this means that chances are, we won’t have Rosie around for many more years.
on the contrary...let’s not warn the kids about the dangers of homosexual behavior....let’s GIVE the kids to them so that they can be orphaned and younger and younger ages.
It would take very little effort to show Camerons numbers are bad, if they are. Cameron's methodology has its problems (he takes ages out of the obitutary of gay newspapers), so he probably overestimates the problem. But with all the megamillion dollars of research on homosexuality, you think they could spend a few bucks to determine the average lifespan of homosexuals. My bet is they have, they just don't want to release the results because it would show just how risky the gay lifestyle is.
Cameron relies on a lot on obituary data which is suspect. But everyone who knows any homosexuals knows this is true. You just don’t know many old gay men relative to young gay men. The 80’s were devastating to their numbers.
Interesting post! I am shocked that “gay” women have shortened lives too. I wonder if it’s the endometriosis... but you could compare their population to nuns to see if there were any similar diseases. At any rate, don’t expect to see this in the “mainstream” news any time soon.
How long have we been saying this?

Rudy is all for it, though.
They’ll come for our cigarettes, telling us and all the school kids how bad it is, all while celebrating sodomy.

It’s the hardcore “Dykes” that lower the life expectancy. They lead a tough as nails lifestyle that would make a merchant marine on a tramp steamer cry.
I’m just not buying that the way you have sex will affect your life span. Correlation vs. causation — gays are also statistically more likely to engage in dangerous behavior such as drug use and promiscuity (and for men their type of sex is more dangerous with those partners).
Give me a group of non-promiscuous, drug-free gays, IOW rule out other possible factors, and I’ll consider it.
It’s a crappy prognosis.
But only if you inhale!
Can you source those statistics? Also, do you have any more statistical sources?
Here’s the list of references from the website I pulled it off of.

I think the point is that sexually active males who are homosexual are much more likely to be promiscuous and use drugs *because* they are homosexual, in which case it is the *total* effect of homosexuality on mortality that is relevant - not the *partial* effect.
What an amazing and excellent point!

In today's society Homosexuality and Lesbianism are being hailed by many as a normal healthy life styles. Many laudatory and complimentary things are being reported and circulated about these individuals. We at The Christian Arsenal believe that the people in this life style are precious in God's site just as we all are. We believe that they should be treated with the same dignity as anyone. We however disagree with their position in the matter of sexuality. We do not look down on them, we disagree with them. These statistics are for consideration by anyone. |

Maybe they should increase taxes on homos to defray the obvious health care costs, banning homos in public places would also help.
Thanks for the article. Shameless bump.
Gay isn’t a sex position, it is a lifestyle. You cannot separate the gay from the drugs, the multiple partners, and other dangerous behaviours. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t people in the gay community that live differently, but as a community they have these tendencies.
“engaging in homosexual behavior reduces the lifespan by 24 years”

Good.
Yes, you can. They are more inclined to this behavior as a general population, but it is not a given for individuals. And this study wouldn't apply to those who don't involve themselves in such behavior. Thus, the study would probably be more accurately stated as "Drugs and promiscuity lead to a shorter life span." And that would be one of those "Duh, you actually had to do a study to figure that out?" moments.
Thanks for that. It pretty much confirmed my suspicions. A stupidly-large percentage of gays are involved in dangerous life-shortening behaviors and are infected with diseases in an abnormally high ratio because of them (although a couple entries don’t appear to have any relation to life span).
With data like this, it’s obvious the study would come out with a shorter life span for gays. But the life span difference is about the dangerous behavior and not just being gay. Anyone, straight or gay, who does IV drugs, is a prostitute and has dozens of yearly partners (many unknown) isn’t going to live long.
Yeah, but when we say it we are labelled "addicts in denial."
They really need a sign on their backsides that says “exit only”.
True, but for whatever reason the gay lifestyle is plagued with such dangerous behavior. Gay sex in itself is risky.
Outbreak of Syphilis Among Men Who Have Sex With Men -—Southern California, 2000
from Morbidity & Mortality Weekly Report
During 1998-2002, the number of early syphilis cases increased, from 41 cases in 1998 to 495 cases in 2002.[3] Concomitant with the increase in early syphilis was an increase in the proportion of cases among MSM, from 22% in 1998 to 88% in 2002.

It's probably that way since gays were underground for years. And gay sex itself (at least for males) isn't all that risky if it's monogamous. I doubt it's risky at all for monogamous females.
Personally, I think the "lifestyle" is a great darwinian way to weed out the idiots in our society.
That excuse has gone out the window that last 20 years.
Social trends die hard.
They smoke fags.
