Ha...good ione.....one for the profile quotes

Actually, the group with the higest number of newly reported cases is black women between 18 and 30.

That the law is all that's keeping themselves from sleeping with goats and dead people. But, their morals prevents them.

THat may be, but the arguement was that Homosexuals are the largest group already having the disease....
Considering homosexuals are not a species unto themselves, I would imagine the comparative ratio of gay people to straight people is far less. There for, who has more occurances of the disease? Straight people of any age/race or gay people of any age/race?

Yes, that was the question....I don't know, I'm not familiar with any of those statistics.

Exactly. Their fear of the LAW and their fear of GOD.
Scary, isn't it? That it's not an inherent idea that these things are bad?

I think the argument was that AIDS originated among homosexuals. Which it did not.
The current statistics are http://www.avert.org/worldstats.htm
Yes, it may be that the HI-virus originally spread in certain “gay” communities, because these people did not at the time use condoms – heck, why should they have back then? As soon as the gravity of the situation became clear however, the number of heterosexual cases began to explode.
If only homosexual men were infected first how did it jump to heterosexuals?
Today 46% of all infected humans are WOMEN. And I’ll go ahead and accuse the Catholic Church and straight looser-men abusing women in brothels and insisting on not using protection for that.
To the best of our medical knowledge AIDS originated in Africa, and spread there as well, among both homo- and heterosexuals.

...wich Capt quoted, and whioch claims that Homosexuals are the largest group infected with HIV....or maybe that the percentage is the largest....
The Statistics is sadly of no use since it doesn't show a split between Hetero-, Homo, and Bisexual people.
Bardock> Oh, ok. Sorry, didn't see that one.
" 19th March 2003 - New research from Isis Research, an independent healthcare market research agency, finds that far from being a disease that affects homosexuals and drug users, 51% of newly diagnosed HIV patients in Europe are in fact heterosexual against just 36% homosexual. As a result of this shift, the number of females being diagnosed with HIV is fast catching up with the number of males."

I do not know the actual homo/hetero-rate. The thing is, that it has become an epidemic by epidemiological (?) standards, and if society continues to treat this as a "gay disease" we'll be getting no where. If action is not taken, we risk tb and measles because the background-population immune-system is lowered.

I am wondering what the other 13% are....
The rest I agree....it obviously is not a "gay-disease"....

Now maybe I'm just ignorant but anywhere I have lived in the past 15 years hasn't addresses HIV nor AIDS as a gay problem but a world problem. What would be interesting to read is how many of the newly infected individuals practiced safe sex and how many had multiple partners in a short time period🙂 Hetero or Homo I don't care it does require everyone think before taking action.

That's a good question, homes. Dirty needles aren't as prevalent as they were in the 80's and 90's. Now a days, tattoo parlors are as sterile as an emergency room, so that's really no longer an issue either.

No, but it definitely seems like it did.
Anyone having problems grasping the magnitude of this?
So, you know AIDS doesn't come from homosexual intercourse, but...it still seems like it did...?
How do you come up with this? You KNOW that it's false, but you continue to claim otherwise. Why? Because you'd liked it to have come from homosexuals having sex?
If I fall down the stairs and end up battered and bruised, then a cop comes over and asks me if I got beat up, do I say:
"No, I fell down the stairs." or "No, but it seems like I did."?
