Monogamy!

That’s right boys and girls, the panacea for STDs has finally been found. Using this new found medical technique, all STDs can easily be whipped off the face of the planet in under 100 years. Never again will we need to face the scourge of Syphilis, or the devastating effects of AIDS (though it is still possible that this one may be around in an extremely attenuated form), or the embarrassment of herpes.

Per the latest studies on this new medical treatment, being completely committed to only one partner, and waiting till marriage acts as 100% promise against contracting STD’s. If approved by the FDA, the ACLU and the MPAA, it will become the standard recommendation by all doctors in the hopes of beating this tragedy

Test studies have shown that when comparing 1000 couples adhering to this medical regiment, The astonishing results indicated no one contracted any STD of Any kind; something no other medical technique can claim about any ailment

A new day has dawned… Talk to your Health provider today to see if monogamy is right for you.

Some possible side effects may include an increase in ridicule from popular culture, A yearning sensation devoted only to your spouse, Increased affection for your spouse, and in some cases, children. Please report any of these conditions to your local parish as they may be signs of a truly blossoming relationship. Monogamy is not subject to lawsuits related to unexpected Children…

(Just an in jest statement. but a powerful statement all the same. Something we all know…)

In Christ
 
LOL, it’s amazing how simple something is that so many make it sound so difficult and unattainable. :rolleyes:
 
There is a recently-closed thread on AIDS that I might sum up:

Expert on AIDS who blames the Catholic Church for not supporting condoms: “Millions of people are dying because of the Church’s position.”

Catholic: “The Church’s position is that abstinence is the way to prevent AIDS. That works. Promoting condom use merely encourages the behavior that spreads AIDS.”

EOAWBLTCCFNSC: “Abstinence only works if people are perfect, and they aren’t.”

Catholic: “But comdoms have a failure rate. If you engage in dangerous sex frequently enough – even with condoms – you will ultimately get AIDS.”

EOAWBLTCCFNSC: “I never said condoms were perfect.”

Catholic: “Let’s look at a real world example, Botswana. It’s a small, fairly affluent nation with a reasonably homogenious law-abiding population. If condoms would work anywhere, they would work there. The UN tried it and today nearly half of all Batswana have AIDS.”

EOAWBLTCCFNSC: “That’s because they often don’t use condoms!”

Catholic: “Correct. When people are encouraged to continue this kind of behavior, they often omit the safety precautions in the passion of the moment. They also often mix drugs and alcohol and sex.”

EOAWBLTCCFNSC: "Well, do you expect people to be perfect?"

Catholic: "Let me see here. Abstinence will only work if people are perfect, so it’s an unacceptable strategy, right?.

"Condoms, on the other hand will work only if they are perfect **and **only if people are perfect.

“So that’s the straegy to pursue?”😛

EOAWBLTCCFNSC: “You’re twisting everything! I don’t want to talk to you any more!”
 
Of course the real reason they want condoms in Africa is to introduce a culture of contraception, in order to further the UN agenda to purify the human race of all inferior types, and to eliminate poverty by eliminating the poor, instead of eliminating the root causes of poverty. AIDS is just an opportunity that they are exploiting for their ultimate goal.
 
I don’t know that monogamy is a “cure” for STD’s. But perhaps 2 people who remain virgins until they marry and then remain monogamous is. Sadly that isn’t the “norm” in todays society.

There is another form of safe sex but it is still a mortal sin so I won’t mention it here.
 
Of course, abstinence is the only thing that works 100% of the time. BUT, it doesn’t make any money for anyone (read: pharmaceutical companies), so of course it isn’t promoted by anyone except the Church. 🤷 Figures.
 
Lets remember especially when it comes to AIDS, many healthcare professionals get it by treating people with the disease. Also, many innocent children have gotten it via parents, and others through transfusions. AIDS is not some kind of “Divine Punishment” it is a real disease that can be spread and we should treat it as such. The most risky profession is EMTs and Medics because they can never be prepared for all situations and also deal with trauma victims. Those professionals might spread it to their spouses and God forbid, their children too.

I thought we established that when we changed the names of “GRIDS” (Gay related immunodeficency syndrome) to AIDS.

I just watched a TV show about a guy who was a Paramedic who acquired AIDS through treating other people. Luckily his wife was somehow not affected. Very sad

Thank you so much for posting this! I recently had an arguement with my husband about the Church’s refusal to capitulate on condoms in Africa. My husband (also a Catholic) felt that it was irresponsible for the Church to refuse to try any solution that might work (read:condoms). Next time we talk about it, I’ll bring up your argument. It might help him understand why the Church doesn’t HAVE to “bend”.

I have been told, by AIDS activists that Universal Precautions prevent health care professionals from getting AIDS (which justifies the activists’ opposition to AIDS testing) and few children get it from their parents.

Be that as it may, the primary method of AIDS transmission is via illicit sex – usually homosexual acts, or women having sex with promiscuous bi-sexual men. Second to that is intravenous drug users with infected needles.

If we can solve these two problems, we can prevent most AIDS.

The solution to both is for those in the at-risk groups to change their behavior.

In Africa it is primarily, and has been primarily a heterosexual disease. You missed the point of the post that it is not a gay disease only and some divine punishment.

You might also point out that not every proposed solution that comes down the pike works.

Some “solutions” make things worse.

Condoms are a case in point. Once you convince people that condoms are “safe sex,” and so encouraged, they have more illicit sed, you have a hard time unconvincing them.

How would condoms prevent physicians from getting the disease from their patients? I’m also wondering how a child would get it from a parent, and how a condom could possibly prevent that.

No one has shown the female-to-male transmission rate in Africa is greater than in the US. Female-to-male transmission of AIDS in sexual relations is rather rare. Male-to-male and male-to-female transmission is the norm.

That is a complete and utter falsification of the discussion on one of the hottest threads on this Forum in recent weeks - which you helped to close down with this kind of blatantly crude style of reformulating the observations, opinions, evidence and insights of others who were genuinely searching for answers.

If you again misrepresent my professional observations, I will report you immediately.

If others are interested in the ins and outs of HIV infection, prevalence and global spread, and ways in which the pandemic can be challenged, by Catholics and others, please do go to thread, HIV, the wretched of the earth, and CC. We had over 400 postings in less than two days - it’s a hot topic.

The influence of posters like this one meant that we were not able to discuss aspects of the Principle of Double Effect, responsibility as Christians for understanding and battling the pandemic - which will affect us all, even if we are not infected ourselves - and what should be taught to Catholic young people about HIV and other STIs. Nothing is being done in our Catholic Church in South Africa, even though it has one of the highest rates of infection in the world.

Please do not be misled down a sidebar, or a detour, or a deadend by posters who have another agenda.

That may be correct. But you make the assumption it started as a STD. It probably had its origins elsewhere in Africa and spread male-to-female there more quickly. This is why I call it a heterosexual disease there.

This is not worthy of you! Where on earth did you dig up this garbage, and why would one ever want to spread this racist, anti-humanitarian smut?

You would do well also to read the thread just closed: HIV, the wretched of the earth, and the CC’s teachings. There are a number of points of view there, and some professional insights that might help.
