Atheists are Intolerant

Actually no you're not. The claim is that homosexual activity was a danger to society for the previously mentioned reasons. Your idea of refuting this "heterosexuals have the same STD rates as homosexuals". We are not even comparing homosexuals to heterosexuals. That is an utterly failed attempt at addressing the claim.

If not, then why would they be a danger to society?

Well we don't know that the STD rates were the same back then as they are now (so you cannot prove that).

Why would that comparison be relevant?

But we know that there is risk involved in homosexual activities.

No, we don't

Now add the fact that they could not protect themselves and less advanced medically.

They couldn't protect themselves while having straight sex either.

Unless you're actually insisting that there are no risks involved in unprotected homosexual activity. Now you're not doing that are you?

The risks are the same as unprotected heterosexual activity. Unless your point is to ban all sexual activity altogether, I don't see any point in singling out homosexuality.
