This is why it is imperative that the government discourage homosexuality, and discourage the notion that it is a permanent, genetically inherited trait. People who experience same sex attraction, for their own benefit, can and should be dissuaded from this lifestyle and referred to professionals who will help them to lead a normal life. Legal recognition of homosexual unions would serve only to further entrench the notions that “once a homosexual, always a homosexual,” and that same sex attractions are healthy, normal, and ought to be explored, and thus would cause more people to become entrapped in this dangerous lifestyle.
“There is still another reason why the government should discourage homosexual behavior: the government has a vested interest in preserving traditional morality. Since the family is the fundamental building block of society, the survival of the nation as a whole is ultimately dependent upon the health of its families. If the moral health of a nation decays to the point where its families no longer produce enough children to support the elderly, as seems to be happening in countries like Germany, Greece, Bulgaria, Italy, the Czech Republic, Romania, and Spain, this is a sure sign of imminent cultural death [19]. This is to be avoided at all costs. Well, widespread acceptance of homosexuality as a legitimate lifestyle choice for anyone who is so inclined could only exacerbate these problems. Hence the policies of the federal and state governments should be conducive to a society wherein those who experience same-sex attraction are encouraged to seek treatment, reform themselves, and ultimately overcome their temptations to the dangerous homosexual lifestyle and become fully functional members of society: husbands, wives, fathers, and mothers. Obviously, granting legal recognition to homosexual unions would have the exact opposite effect. This is why homosexual marriage, and even civil union, can not and must not be allowed to become a recognized institution of American public life.”

[14]According to Alan P. Bell and Martin S. Weinberg [Homosexualities: A study of Diversity Among Men and Women, p. 308, Table 7, New York: Simon and Schuster, 1978.‡], in 1978 15 percent of white, gay men claimed 100-249 sex partners, 17 percent claimed 250- 499, 15 percent claimed 500-999, and 28 percent claimed more than 1,000.

Consequently, anal intercourse leads to leakage of fecal material that can easily become chronic. The potential for injury is exacerbated by the fact that the intestine has only a single layer of cells separating it from highly vascular tissue, that is, blood. Therefore, any organisms that are introduced into the rectum have a much easier time establishing a foothold for infection than they would in a vagina. The single layer tissue cannot withstand the friction associated with penile penetration, resulting in traumas that expose both participants to blood, organisms in feces, and a mixing of bodily fluids” [Dr. John R.
