You Know How God Was Right

He sometimes shows it by allowing us to suffer consequences:

About 16 percent of Americans between the ages of 14 and 49 are infected with genital herpes, making it one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases, U.S. health officials said on Tuesday.

Black women had the highest rate of infection at 48 percent and women were nearly twice likely as men to be infected, according to an analysis by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

About 21 percent of women were infected with genital herpes, compared to only 11.5 percent of men, while 39 percent of blacks were infected compared to about 12 percent for whites, the CDC said.

The CDC estimates that more than 80 percent of people with genital herpes do not know they are infected.

"The message is herpes is quite common. The symptoms can be often very innocuous," Dr. John Douglas of the CDC said in a teleconference.

"Because herpes is so prevalent it becomes ... a really important reason to use condoms on a consistent and correct basis with all of your partners," Douglas said.

Douglas said the increased rate of infection in blacks is not do to increased risk behavior but likely due to biological factors that make women more susceptible as well as the higher rate of infection within black communities.

The CDC estimates that there are 19 million new sexually transmitted disease infections every year in the United States, costing the health care system about $16 billion annually.

So what’s the best way to avoid this problem?  Well, it’s pretty simple and old-fashioned: don’t have sex until marriage.  The best part in all this is that women have it more so than men.  That means that men are less sexually promiscuous than women because we actually care about other things besides companionship.

OK, that was a bit sexist.  But the proof is right here in this report.  The best thing a society can do for its girls is to marry them off when they are in the 18-22 range and then they won’t be disease-ridden skanks later on.  Considering that more and more women are going to college as well, this merely proves what a cesspool colleges have become, thanks in large part to the radical student movement from the 1960s.

I do not rejoice in this news, despite my previous comments.  In truth, this is merely one more reminder of our decadent society and how it is collapsing around us.  It is heart-breaking to see our once great civilization going full speed in its downward spiral.  The United States is dying and it will probably not be a pretty death either.
