Amen to that! It's too bad that you may catch some flak for this from some FReepers who are unwilling to admit that God is ultimately in control, whether they like it or not.
To: RWBaral
So what do you think would happen if we had a leader that took to the airwaves & stated it as a lifstyle disease & cut funding by 90% with the remainder going to education only & no aids medicine covered under medical policies. Do you think the homosexuals would change their lifestyle?

If I get the flu, and go to my doctor, they must report it to the state department of health. If I get AIDS and go to my doctor they are FORBIDDEN to report it to the state department of health.

Oh you troublemaker!
You are obviously guilty of agreeing with God's plan for man and woman and using common sense.
The god of political correctness, to which you must bow, is not happy with your unrepentant "sin".

Yes, the flu doesn't have; flu advocates, flu activists, flu education and flu initiatives. When you get the flu you suffer and dont blame society and you dont have special interest groups lobby for more flu research because you believe that we must find a cure.
To: Digger
The Missionaries of Charity (founded by Mother Teresa) run an AIDS hospice in New York's West Village. But because the nuns make those who enter the hospice abide by a set of rules that conform to traditional Catholic teaching (no drugs, no porn, no condoms, etc.), they get blasted by the "gay" activists here, who refuse to donate any AIDS money they've collected to the this particular AIDS hospice.
IOW, these activists are interested only in promoting homosexuality ("gay rights") and sexual mutilation ("transgenderism") as normal variants of human sexuality, not in helping people with AIDS.
So IMO, the answer to your question is, nothing could convince these miscreants to alter their behavior.

I have seen TV interviews with AIDs patients where they say when they get out of the hospital they are going to go right out to bars in San Francisco looking for partners/dates . It seems that even though they have the disease and are suffering terribly they are incapable of any human kindness or feeling for their fellow humans. The sexual urge is stronger than any compassion to save others from this scourge. Its all in the uncontrollable URGE!!
To: Come get it
OK, great strategy, we'll just...like...you know...wipe out sin. That's so simple, why didn't we think of it before? /sarcasm
To: RWBaral
That 5% heterosexual number represents medically unverified CLAIMS by the patient. Ther has not been a medically verified case of female to male sexual transmission in the US. Ever.
To: RWBaral
Well, nobody is likely going to be able to do away with homosexuality though I see many in here who woud like to.
It seems to me to be pragmatic to not make it so hard for them to formalize a relationship somehow to stop much of the promescuity in that culture.
I never understood making more formalized (not marriage mind you) relationships between lesbians and gays difficult which encourages multiple partners, and then calling for an end to behavior causing further infections.
Seems to me the pandemic logistics take priority over some American's longtime past-time of waging a war against gays and lesbians.
You can't do the latter without hurting the effort to do the former.

"If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck then it's a...?"...Quacker-backer? I'm not sure of your point here. Not to mention you are speaking to a graduate of the University of Oregon, whose mascot is the duck.
I've seen too many gorgious babes on the shoulders of many of our football players - whose team came in second in the nation - to think of those guys as worried about each other's rump. ;-)

The reason that many (if not all) conservatives are opposed to the idea of any officially recognized "gay unions" is that it would be one step closer to legalizing true gay marriages.
To: RWBaral
I am very glad that you have posted this. It never has made sense to talk about AIDS without considering the source of the disease. It is all backwards.
To: RWBaral
Stop the at risk behaviours, and you stop most HIV infections. Stop talking sense you Limey! The American media and public have no appetite for it.

I realize that. But I also understand priorities.
It is more imporant to make allowances for social custom to slow this pandemic then it is to worry it will lead to marriage between gay and lesbians.
Every additional infected person endangers - and costs - this nation. I would rather see gays and lesbians stick to one partner then to sleep around.
And the only way I see that happening is if there is the social incentive of some form of sanctioned social bond between these people.
Less of a culture of "sleeping around" in this sub-culture makes it less likely bi-sexual men will bring something home to their wives.
I am not saying my suggestion is perfect, but anything done to cut the rate of spread of HIV that works seems to me to be worth doing.

Smokers are looked at as low life scum who cause their own medical problems
Promiscuous homosexuals that cause their own problems are heroes
INSANITY

Hey, I never said that we could wipe it out. I just want people to acknowledge the real reason this disease spreads so rapidly. If they were really interested in stopping AIDS, they would find out how to avoid getting the disease. It's simple: stop living a perverse lifestyle. If one wants to accept the risks of their lifestyle, so be it. The problem is that they want taxpayer dollars to be spent to help them deal with the consequences.
