Yikes!

Here is a little excerpt from an article that I just read. Click HERE for the link. I had no idea it had gotten this bad. There is no doubt about it, the smart money is on sexual purity until marriage. That means no messing around at all! God knew what He was talking about. These stats don't even take into account the psychological effects of sexual activity outside of marriage.

There is a big difference between sex and what gets called sex in our culture. Sex is great. Sex is OK with God. Sex ONLY occurs within the bounds of marriage with the person you are married to. (By the way, and it is shameful that I have to define marriage but here goes, marriage is only between a man and a woman. Sorry if this steps on your toes. I didn't write the definition or come up with the plan. I'm just a messenger.) Anything else is either adultery, fornication, homosexuality or some other weird perversion that God gets pretty upset about.


Check out this smattering of factual 411 from Dr. Meg Meeker’s new book Your Kids at Risk: How Teen Sex Threatens Our Sons and Daughters:

• This year, 8 to 10 million teens will contract an STD.

• Nearly one out of four sexually active teens is living with a sexually transmitted disease at this moment.


• Nearly 50% of African-American teenagers have genital herpes.


• Although teenagers make up just 10% of the population, they acquire 25% of all STDs.

• Herpes (specifically, herpes simplex virus type 2) has skyrocketed 500% in the past 20 years among white teenagers.

• One in five children over the age of 12 tests positive for herpes type 2.


• Nearly one out of ten teenage girls has chlamydia, and half of all new chlamydia cases are diagnosed in girls 15 to 19 years old.

• STDs accounted for 87% of all cases reported of the top ten most frequently reported diseases in the United States in 1995.

• This new epidemic is not just cursing those “poor inner city kids.” No, the viruses have solidly taken up residence in the suburbs.

Yep, the reality is that every twenty-four hours 21,000 teens are slapped, saddled, infused and infected with some creepy, nasty and potentially deadly bug brought about by following the advice of our crass culture.
He didn't say anything about HIV or AIDS in this group. I'd be scared to see what kind of numbers there are there. Those herpes numbers are almost as bad as the HIV numbers in Africa. That's just scary!

Just think of how this will effect Hillarycare if, God forbid, we should get it, when the long-term effects of these diseases become more evident. And we thought that Social Security was going to bust us. Because of the foolish political correctness that has paralyzed the minds of everyone in the government, it is becoming more and more difficult for insurance companies to refuse coverage for STDs (and especially HIV/AIDS.) There are very few times that you will see me feeling sorry for an insurance company, but they are getting more than they bargained for with this deal.

I read another article not long ago that talked about the growing number of STDs among seniors too. Wow. More fuel to the fire. But we don't want to curb our sexual appetites or actually obey the Bible or something. We have to find a cure so we can keep on with our sinful - yes, SINFUL - lifestyles. Well the day is coming, and may already be here, where there won't be any pills to make it go away, or, for that matter, even to hold it at bay.

Quote Of The Day

"If I give you everything you want, and I can afford to do that, you'll grow up to be a 40-year-old child. I build men, not boys. I want you to grow up to be a 40-year-old man."
- Jane Wyman (to Michael Reagan who had asked her for a Schwinn 10-speed bike)
