Genesis 19

in is contagious. That is the theme of this chapter. "They gave up natural relations with women for unnatural. So God gave them up to a reprobate mind." So St. Paul tells us in the first chapter of Romans. Imagine an entire city of homosexual men, whose practice allowed them to violate their guests in such a manner and to abuse them.

There is no evidence whatsoever that homosexuality is anything other than a mental illness, a sexual perversion and to the extent it is carried out, a learned behavior. There is no scientific evidence for a "Gay Gene" although some men are obviously more masculine than others, with higher T-counts that appear to have a genetic as well as an environmental basis. Most homosexuals I have known had either poor or no relationships with their fathers, and this alienation leads them to seek the most far-out and perverse sexual expressions which women will scarcely agree to perform, forcing many to turn to men. Even today the health cost of being a homosexual is enormous. HIV is extremely difficult to contract for a heterosexual male who only has relations with women. So low in fact that the CDC frequently neglects the heterosexual male rate of infection in its HIV statistics.

MSM are Men who have "Sex" with Men,
while IDUs are Illicit Intravenous Drug Users.
Notice what class of persons are
entirely missing from this CDC chart?

Thus, the spread of HIV requires the spread of homosexuality, and if there were no homosexuals, there would be no HIV within a single generation. Anal sex is anatomically dangerous, since the anus is much more fragile than the vaginal or penile structures and rupture of the anus and sigmoid colon can lead to life-threatening infections of normally harmless bacteria from stool. But those who have abandoned God likewise abandon the correct use of their genitals to propagate the species.

At the end of the chapter, we can see that living in a town of such sexual immorality has taken its toll on Lot's daughters as well. They do not shirk from "giving up natural relations" themselves, by impregnating themselves by their father. Where did they learn such evil? They learned it, and a lack of reverence for the sex act, from their neighbors living in Sodom, and so evil was begotten, the future enemies of the Israelites, the Moabites and the Ammonites.

Sin is contagious. It is often a learned behavior, but at the same time, Original Sin makes our hearts and minds fertile for this actual sin. We are prone to sin, but the specific sins we fall to, in this case, sex, tend to be learned from our friends and acquaintances.
