Once On The Brink Of Eradication, Syphilis Is Flaming Again (among male homosexuals)

“Isn’t that just lovely?”

Remember that the next time that thweet male flight attendant pops a top on an in-flight beverage and pours it into a plastic cup full of ice he just scooped up.

So, are we suddenly going to spend 5 times as much curing syphilis than curing cancer?

[daniel1212]

What would be the response if a consensual Christian practice results in the stats we see for sodomy. Among other infections, bout 80% of new HIV cases among men due to this? https://peacebyjesuscom.blogspot.com/2019/10/negative-effects-of-homosexual.html

“In California and the US, about half of syphilis cases are in men who have sex with men. More than a third of women in the western United States who have syphilis also use meth, a drug that has seen its own surge in recent years.”

Sounds like a non-problem for most of us here.

[spacejunkie2001]

Good point. And...although it’s very sad to read about suffering in any community, including the gay community, the babies was the hardest to read about. Infection in babies is up exponentially and a lot of them are not being treated.

I pray that God opens the eyes of the blind and turns their stone hearts to flesh before it’s too late.

Sick...

40 years ago our hospital staff discussed WHO noting demise of TB. Now with influx on southern borders it’s BACK AGAIN.

A lot of our problems would rapidly and massively recede if we simply abolished the welfare system and socialized medicine. The leading function of government today is to subsidize and enable socially and personally counterproductive behavior because, you know, fairness. We get what we pay for.

Let people with AIDS, syphilis and other STD's pay for their own medical treatment, without subsidizing them through direct government payments and government mandates on health insurers. We would have a lot less AIDS and syphilis if people who played stupid games actually won stupid prizes.

Indeed. “Worshiped” is the correct word. Certain groups’ behaviors must be worshiped despite being destructive.

The use of meth can cause permanent severe brain damage. This adds to the potential damage if Syphilis is untreated. The problem with homos is the symptoms of infection may hide in the anus and go unnoticed. With the impairment of reasoning from meth addiction, and the illusive nature of Syphilis symptoms as it attacks the brain, you have disease spreaders without the mental capacity to stop their dangerous practices.

[fuzzylogic]

Nobody wants to admit that gay men are a petri dish for any new infection. The pure mechanics of their behavior provide the easiest form of transmission. So it isn’t just this but any transmittable bug.

The truth nobody wants to hear is that their lifestyle is inherently unhealthy. Saying that IS NOT HATE. It is just a fact. Nobody wants to talk about the drug use and promiscuity that leads to infection. When ~1% (gay men) of the population has 40x the cases of HIV vs. the heterosexual population it highlights the problems of the gay lifestyle.

Yet we’re told we should all celebrate it. It is one thing to acknowledge same sex attraction exists and have a “live and let live” philosophy but to ignore the consequences, as if there are none, and culturally encourage it is wrong. There’s nothing about the lifestyle that leads to happiness, only despair, ultimate loneliness, and health problems.

Nobody wants to talk about this legitimate “health crisis”. The only “health crisis” we hear about now is “white supremacy” and “gun violence”.

Upside down world.

“...Syphilis Is Raging Again (among male homosexuals)..”

So are anal fissures, colo-rectal cancer, rectal prolapse etc.

Before antibiotics, syphilis was a sentence of a slow and unpleasant death, just like AIDS.

Then antibiotics came along, and the 60’s and 70’s became a sexual free-for-all, until AIDS.

Now we have antibiotic-resistant strains of syphilis

[If You Want It Fixed - Fix It]

Nature abhors perversion.

No one wanted to stop Hitler...until he went over his border. Nature wins in the end. God gives us our inch and foot and mile...let’s us see the choling for air we bring on ourselves.

Thanks for that visual. /s/ Luckily, we don’t fly any more. And we won’t fly until the evil masks are history.
