>From A.E. Wilder-Smith's AIDS-Fact without Fiction.

"Had our schools and their teachers known and appreciated the words of
the Holy Bible with respect to homosexuality, had today's priests and
religious instructors taught lessons on the Old and New Testament in a
conscientious manner, then many children would have had the chance of
appreciating that anal intercourse is a perversion of human sex life
that has psychological (aggression) and physiological (epidemic disease)
consequences. These teachings are so serious that homosexuality was
punished by death and the exclusion from God's People in Israel(4). The
terminology used in the old scripts about sodomy is UNAMBIGUOUS. SODOM
and SODOMY were the direct causes of God's judgement and the New
Testament confirms the rationale of this severe sentence. The fact that
the modern world thinks differently about these practices is only A
CONFIRMATION THAT TODAY'S SOCIETY IS BECOMING BLATANTLY AND AGGRESSIVELY
POST-CHRISTIAN."

Rom 1:19-33.

 Misc quotes from AIDS: Facts without Fiction.

 "AGGRESSION AND AGGRESSIVENESS"

It seems to be rather certain today that some lifestyles cause
aggressiveness. The eruptions of violence and aggressiveness everywhere
are giving many politicians headaches. Movies and TV show more and more
violence -- for violence is entertainment indeed! In the spring of
1988, a 13 year old girl went on trial for an alleged knife murder of
another adolescent. In America some teachers have asked to be allowed
to carry weapons during school hours.

In line with this trend, 200,000 homosexuals violently demonstrated in
Washington in 1987. They threatened to terrorize blood banks by
infecting them with the HIV virus. They would encourage other
homosexuals to donate blood if more money was not made available for
AIDS research. If this threat became reality it would constitute the
pitiless murder of patients who received the infected blood during
surgery or for other reasons. This kind of murder is pure terrorism,
just as is the case with hijacking. Only the actual technique would be
more subtle.

The Bible gives indirectly the first authentic story about some of the
consequences of homosexuality (sodomy). The city of Sodom was known for
the practice of homosexuality and of violence in the ancient world.
Chedorlaomer (Genesis 14), a mighty king in this area, attacked the town
of Sodom and took Abrahams's nephew, Lot, his whole family, and the
kings of Sodom, Gomorrah and Zoar hostage and brought them to Damascus.
When Abraham and his people heard about this, they surprised
Chedorlamoer north of Damascus and brought Lot and the kings of Sodom
and Gomorrha back without loss. Abraham did not request any reward for
this courageous action -- only the provisions that he and his people had
used.

Why cite this example? To show that Sodom and Gomorrha should have had
every reason to be grateful to Abraham and Lot, but they were not. When
God (the God of Abraham) decided to send his envoys to Sodom to get
further first-hand information about matters in Sodom, the envoys spent
the night at Lot's house. But when the men of Sodom found that out,
they besieged Lot's house and threatened to break in the doors. They
demanded the envoys as prisoners so that they could rape the men
homosexually. Lot instead offered them his own two daughters for the
night! Apparently, the Lot family had absorbed a little bit too much of
the sodomic culture! The men of Sodom rejected the offer and again set
about breaking in the doors of Lot's house. The divine envoys then
struck them with blindness so that they searched for the doors in vain.
But the Sodomites were certainly violently and unjustifiably aggressive
when they ought to have been grateful to Lot.

We conclude that the homosexual Sodomites did not feel in the least
obligated towards Abraham and his family, including Lot, although
without them they all would have been the slaves of King Chedorlaomer.
Secondly, they were in no way thankful. On the contrary, they were
violent to a degree. Their homosexuality was indeed a strong passion
resulting in aggressiveness of the most shameless sort -- they insisted
on raping Divine envoys and in preference to the opposite human sex!

During the course of lecturing at various European universities, I have
had the opportunity of observing situations in some feeble ways similar
to the ones reported on in this biblical story. In some lectures, I
have spoken about the medical aspects of AIDS. Groups of homosexuals
and feminists have often attended. When some medical facts are not as
they would like them, these people often start cacophonies with
whistles, flutes and other instruments. This noise often makes
continuation of the lecture impossible. One of my colleagues once tried
for 1 1/2 hours to speak about abortion in a Northern German
university. In vain. Every time it was mentioned that in the west AIDS
was transmitted mainly by homosexuality, there was deafening cacophony
in the lecture hall -- whistles, trumpet blowing, etc. What an
expression of blind aggressiveness!

The good Book links the homosexual practice of Sodom with the above type
of violent behavior. One reads: "Because that, when they knew God,
they glorified Him not as God, neither wee thankful(grateful): but
became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was
darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools....
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lust of their
own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:... For
this cause God gave them up into vile affections: for even their women
did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And
likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in
their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is
unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error
which was meet... God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those
things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness,
fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy,
murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of
God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient
to parents without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural
affection, implacable, unmerciful:" (Romans 1:21-31). Surely little
comment is needed.

It seems that homosexuality and its practice causes a behavioral
stimulus which does not only interfere with the normal relationship
between the sexes but which also gets into conflict with normal
relationships in society in general. Harmonious human life becomes
impossible. For these reasons alone I think it to be important to state
that homosexuality does not only have medical consequences (AIDS where
HIV infected partners are concerned), but also spiritual, psychological
and mental consequences. The use of condoms certainly can reduce the
risk of the bodily illnesses resulting from promiscuity. The
psychological, spiritual and sociological consequences, however, of
promiscuity, even when practised with condoms will not be excluded.
Homosexuality and promiscuity involve the whole human being body, soul
and spirit.

For these reasons, it seems no wonder that the fathers of the United
States constitution and of other countries too, formulated their
anti-sodomy and anti-promiscuity laws so forcefully. As long as the
majority of a population kept to a monogamous way of life, the existence
of some HIV or other virus posed relatively little threat. Whenever,
however the virus was introduced into a promiscuous, heterosexual or
homosexual society, then an ideal opportunity for the spread of viruses
of this kind was offered. This is why sex emancipation is still
providing the ideal "agar culture medium": for the spread of the AIDS
epidemic.
