"Homoaidia" Not "Homophobia"
The term "homophobia" should not be used as that
word is based on the word for "fear", which emotion is not the usual
reaction to (Male) homosexuals. I suggest the term "Homoaidia" based
on the word for the usual and natural reaction to such creatures, disgust or
revulsion.
The only time a "fear" based word should be used is when discussing male homosexuals as disease vectors (HIV/AIDS) or when considering those who sexually abuse boys.

Bible Does Condemn Homosexuality
From the Milwaukee
Journal Sentinel of 17 October 2011 (Page15A).
HOMOSEXUALITY
Bible does condemn homosexual acts
It is absolutely incredible that Mark Achtemeier, in his op-ed "Celebrating this servant of God," would argue that the Bible does not condemn homosexuality as sinful (Perspectives, Oct. 11).I have read through the Greek New Testament multiple times, read the Torah in Hebrew, translated the Aramaic portions of the Bible, edited a book on the text of Scripture and teach Greek and Hebrew at the college and seminary level in the Milwaukee area.
Old Testament texts such as: "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination" (Lev 18:22) and New Testament texts such as Romans 1:26-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, and many others, mean, in Greek and Hebrew, exactly what they mean in English.
Achtemeier's denomination decided, in the 1920s, to turn away from its former faith in an infallible Bible, an act that led to the resignation of the cream of the faculty of his denomination's seminary, Princeton, at that time.
If he agrees with his denomination that the Bible is filled with errors, let him say so. But to argue that the Bible does not condemn homosexual acts is an egregious misuse of the plain meaning of many passages.

Male Homosexuals & Disease Vectors-Revised
Milwaukee Magazine's August, 2007 issue contained the story
"Gay in the City" which brought to my mind the possible need to cut
away all questions of religion or morality when the behaviors of male
homosexuals are discussed and limit debate and actions to the purely scientific
base of proven public health practices.
From a purely scientific point-of-view, most male homosexuals (Who have clearly demonstrated a general lack of self control and sense of the "common good") represent a disease vector as do the plague bearing fleas on rats, the flies and cockroaches who hang about "unprotected" food and garbage, mosquitoes who carry malaria and other diseases and other like threats to the health of all People.
If the general and Jewish-Christian foundations of morality are ignored (As is the constant drum beat of the homosexual lobby) and only the science of successful public health programs is applied, the best prevention of any epidemic or endemic disease, including HIV/AIDS, is to liquidate the disease vector(s) most responsible for the spread of the attacking illnesses. Therefore, we kill rats and fleas, destroy flies and cockroaches as much as is possible, destroy mosquitoes and ...!
Of course, I cleave to those standards of human-and-humane behaviors held up by traditional Christian and Jewish standards and maintain that the best reaction is: Love the sinner and hate the sin" AND not the views held up (If not reflected in practice) by Muslims and their cousins, the NAZIs.

Defining "Political Correctness"
The following is the 2007 winning entry from an annual
contest at Texas A&M University calling for the most appropriate definition
of a contemporary term. This year's term was 'Political Correctness'.
The winner wrote: "Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
