Subject: RE: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
By the way:

". . . homosexuals are 50 times more likely to develop aids than heteros."

This "statistic"is purely speculative, and as such, nothing more than someone's wild guess.

For example, people who engage in the dangerous practice of sky-diving are 99% more likely to bury their faces three feet deep into the hardpan than people who engage in the practice of Morris dancing.

Those who are born male have a 100% greater chance of getting prostate cancer than those who are born female.

So, what of any significance can we learn from "statistics" like this, eh?
