- Maybe you should talk to the over 6000+ people that were exposed to
- Hepatitis-A at various parties catered by a company in Texas that had a
- practicing homosexual male food handler contaminate their food at several
- holiday parties last month and see if they think that it's stupid. Maybe you
- should talk to the 20+ people that are still in the hospital and see if either
- they or their insurance company thinks that it's stupid.
-
- But then again, he did wash his hands and clean under his fingernails all those
- other times. . .
-
- Isn't it stupid to ignore the fact that sodomy (specifically anal/oral sex,
- performed in that order) IS a public health issue. To ignore this is a
- "stupid".

- True, but so is pretending to fighting for "homosexual rights" by giving the
- AIDS virus "civil rights". I have a cousin who died last fall because of the
- "civil rights" that the so-called "defenders of the gay community" were able
- to win for the AIDS virus. Sure, he chose (his words, not mine) to live the
- homosexual lifestyle that eventually killed him (once again, his words), but
- the "leaders" of the gay community must accept responsibility for their
- fighting against an early quarantine of those suffering from the AIDS virus.
- How many people are now dead because these "leaders" fought against such a
- quarantine.
-
- As my cousin pointed out prior to his death, the so-called biological
- agruments for homosexuality being a "normal" lifestyle could more easily
- be used to justify that rapists, thieves, and those who practice incest
- as simply practicing "alternate" lifestyles. Indeed, drug usage and murder
- could also be justified from nature. Another interesting thing that he
- pointed out was that the very same arguments used to support "alternate
- lifestyles" tear down the concept of civil rights, much less equal rights.
- Remember that in the natural world animals with the power get what they want
- until another animal prevents them (see there, Sadam and Adolf too have a
- "natural justification" :-)).
-
- He also would raise the question of how homosexuality fits the evolution
- model. Would homosexual male animals ever reproduce in nature? If they did,
- they would clearly be bisexual, NOT homosexual. How could male homosexuality
- have ever evolved?
-
- It's usually at this point that people I talk to about his thoughts usually
- call me a "homophobe". Don't bother, the three paragraphs above are some of
- the thoughts that my cousin shared before his death, and the first paragraph
- is simply connecting information that he shared before his death with news
- that I heard on a local "top-40" station this past weekend.
