Gay men can get AIDS easily for the kind of sex they have, gay women not at all since they don't have sex that way. I don't think we should push for all women to become lesbians though. Where would our species go? It would be the end of us.

I'm not pushing for everyone to be gay. But then again, I'm not pushing for everyone to be straight either.

No one talks about it any more? Really? Not sure what planet you are living on, but here on planet Earth the exact opposite is true. They are talking about it all the time. In fact only today was I reading an article about newly discovered anti-HIV molecules.

But this is a thread about homosexuality, not AIDS. The two are not synonymous, and AIDS is not a homosexual disease.

Maybe not but it sure devastated their community in the 70s, etc. It's still not cured and people are getting it.

Of course not, but the "I'm born with it" argument doesn't work then because they can't help who they are yet we even throw them in jail for thinking about crossing that line.

Bottom line is our attractions to certain sins does not justify us giving into those sins. Seek God first and He can change you including your physical desires.
I would say any and all sexual urges must be confined to those who can legally consent to include themselves in them.

Yes many people are still getting it. The majority of them in the world are heterosexual. It is a human disease. Not a homosexual one. And the claim no one is talking about it any more could not be more false.

Romans 1:18-28 For God's indignation is being revealed from heaven on all the irreverence and injustice of men who are
retaining the truth in injustice, (19) because that which is known of God is apparent among them, for God manifests it to
them." (20) For His invisible attributes are descried from the creation of the world, being apprehended by His
achievements, besides His imperceptible power and divinity, for them to be defenseless, (21) because, knowing God, not
as God do they glorify or thank Him, but vain were they made in their reasonings, and darkened is their unintelligent
heart." (22) Alleging themselves to be wise, they are made stupid, (23) and they change the glory of the incorruptible
God into the likeness of an image of a corruptible human being and flying creatures and quadrupeds and reptiles. (24)
Wherefore God gives them over, in the lusts of their hearts, to the uncleanness of dishonoring their bodies among
themselves, (25) those who alter the truth of God into the lie, and are venerated, and offer divine service to the
creature rather than the Creator, Who is blessed for the eons! Amen!" (26) Therefore God gives them over to
dishonorable passions. For their females, besides, alter the natural use into that which is beside nature." (27) Likewise
also the males, besides, leaving the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their craving for one another, males with
males effecting indecency, and getting back in themselves the retribution of their deception which must be." (28) And
according as they do not test God, to have Him in recognition, God gives them over to a disqualified mind, to do that
which is not befitting,
Paul was suspected even in his time of being a closeted gay. You might say he was the Td Haggard of his time. He always had male companions nearby, he had delusions of talking with God all the time and God giving him teaching that God gave no one else, he had a thorn which many believe was homosexual urges, and he strongly condemned gay practices probably as a cover to circumvent talk he was gay--much like Larry Craig, the congressman who spoke harshly against gays, all the while secretly hanging out in toilet stalls at airports to "get a little" in between flights.

Paul was a dream case for Freud and Jung.

PS What were Freud's last words? Answer: "Oh, to be Jung again!"
