Ding Dong, the asshole's dead!

I used to listen to a radio show called loveline back in the day, and I'd say about 90% of the homosexual callers admitted to being sexually molested, now if you'd like me to look up specific episodes and quotes, I can do that.

Does this mean that sexual abuse causes homosexuality? I don't know, but evidence would suggest...

The evidence would suggest you're full of shit...

Also, the study does not indicate that sexual abuse leads to homosexuality. In the control group, 5.3% said they had engaged in same-sex relationships, whereas in the sexual abuse group, 27.3% did.

That 27.3% is miles away from your 90.  Those pesky facts!

Learn to read dummy, I said "I'd say about 90% of the homosexual callers admitted to being sexually molested"...

That is just a rough estimate of HOMOSEXUAL CALLERS TO THAT PARTICULAR RADIO SHOW, which you somehow interpreted it to include all homosexuals. Generally when people called into that show, they had problems, so it makes perfect sense.

Helen W. Wilson, PhD, Assistant Professor of Psychology at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, and Cathy Spatz Widom, PhD, Professor of Criminal Justice and Psychology at John Jay College of Criminal Justice at The City University of New York (CUNY), wrote the following information in their Jan. 7, 2009 article published by Archives of Sexual Behavior, "Does Physical Abuse, Sexual Abuse, or Neglect in Childhood Increase the Likelihood of Same-sex Sexual Relationships and Cohabitation? A Prospective 30-year Follow-up":

   "Findings from this investigation provide tentative support for a relationship between childhood sexual abuse and same sex sexual relationships, but this relationship appeared only for men. That is, men with histories of childhood sexual abuse were more likely than men in a control group to report same sex sexual partnerships... [T]his evidence of a link between court-substantiated cases of childhood sexual abuse and same-sex partnerships reported by adult men 30 years later is a notable finding that adds to the literature on this topic...

   However, the data available in this study did not provide information about when same-sex sexual attractions first emerged and whether this predated or followed the sexual abuse. We also do not know what characteristics associated with the abuse (e.g., frequency, intensity, duration) might account for the relationship with adult sexual partnerships. It is also important to note that very few participants reported exclusively same-sex sexual relationships. Thus, it is possible that childhood sexual abuse increased the likelihood that men would experiment with both same - and opposite - sex partners...

   While this prospective evidence linking childhood sexual abuse to same-sex sexual partnerships in men suggests an increased likelihood, these findings do not suggest that same-sex sexual orientation is caused by child abuse."

let me ask you something, if homosexual males account for 83% of HIV diagnoses (*among males), why is it being portrayed as if HIV affects everyone equally?

You do realize AIDS used to be called GRIDS (Gay-related immune deficiency).

But in today's society making those sort of connections somehow means you hate gays...

*edit forgot to specify

Nice tangent.   "But, but, but, but AIDS!"

Let me ask you a question.  It couldn't possibly be that the demonizing and ostracizing of homosexuals by the religious right has led to lower self-esteem and high-risk behavior, could it?  What incentive do gays have to take care of themselves when people like you are constantly telling them what horrible pieces of shit they are?
