Joe, you have avoided the question of abusive behaviour.

The issues of homosexuality, infection rates, homosexual "marriage", religious faith etc, are all open for debate and Ian is free to state his views on these matters.

Ian uses personal abuse and attempts intimidation in order to deprive others of the right to voice their opinions.

This is the question, what if all, or a majority of members used Ian's tactics?
How long would this excellent forum survive?

Jack....even in Africa, infection rates among male homosexuals are many times that of heterosexuals......CDC has stated clearly that in all countries MSM infection rates are higher than any other demographic.
Marriage does not make people monogamous....I have known of highly promiscuous married couples.......the extended family structure is what keeps society on the rails....no one, or very few want their offspring to think that their parents are sexually loose or have partners outside the family.
That is not to say that couples without children cannot remain faithful to one another, but a secure family structure is the ideal.
Homosexual "marriage" is an Orwellian smokescreen, which gives the impression that all is well within the male homosexual community, while in fact it is suffering an epidemic of sexual infection.
It also stops that particular demographic from being targeted with effective measures to stop the spread of disease within it.

While folks keep repeating that monogamy is the best way of stopping the infection, the disease will keep spreading, as the "marriage" rates amongst MSM are so minute, and as I said already,"marriage" is no guarantee of monogamy.
Marriage rates are falling in all demographics, so why are infection rates only rising in MSM?
