This story has relatively little to do with religion, and everything to do with science - the science of epidemiology. Anyone who had a medical education could have told you essentially what the findings of this study would be before the conclusions were published.

It's been obvious for years that male homosexuality is a significant risk factor for many serious illnesses and markedly reduces life expectancy. But it would be politically incorrect in many circles to say it.

Yet Big Brother, in Obamacare for instance, won't allow insurance companies to charge higher medical insurance rates to gay men because they are statistically much more of a risk in terms of expected loss for the insurer. (Contrast that with smoking, which increases the expected loss for the insurance carrier, but quantitatively less than male homosexuality.) When it comes to formulation of government policy, actuarial science is neglected in favor of pandering to the gay community. Nonetheless, the left will tell you that they think out public policy in accordance with scientific knowledge, while the "neanderthal" right rejects scientific thought.

They also tend to make less money than their heterosexual counterparts, which may account for some health care discrepancies.

This may be a little deceptive - it was my understanding that homosexuals / lesbians tend to have more disposable income that heterosexuals, presumably because they rarely raise children.

True, but outside of the circle of people aware of their religion I don't see anyone who cares. The only force today that stands in the way of the homosexual lobby is religion. The scientific community by and large goes into hiding to protect their tenures.

They’re not neanderthals. They’re fascists.
