This is a meaningless award, but significant in its publicity from the fact that it was included in a "release from the CARICOM Secretariat" ... and that it ignores the fact, truth, detail and evidence in the CDC's 2010 report "CDC Fact Sheet: HIV and AIDS Among Gay and Bisexual Men" ( http://www.torahdec.org/Downloads/FastFacts-MSM-FINAL508COMP.pdf. ), which screams for an epidemiological (rather than a ‘human rights’) response to a behaviour-based pathology that is wreaking personal and societal havoc.

Stabroek News: “sasod honoured with Red Ribbon Award”?
This is a meaningless award, but significant in its publicity from the fact that it was included in a "release from the CARICOM Secretariat" ... and that it ignores the fact, truth, detail and evidence in the CDC's 2010 report "CDC Fact Sheet: HIV and AIDS Among Gay and Bisexual Men" ( http://www.torahdec.org/Downloads/FastFacts-MSM-FINAL508COMP.pdf. ), which screams for an epidemiological (rather than a ‘human rights’) response to a behaviour-based pathology that is wreaking personal and societal havoc.

Initial story found at (http://www.stabroeknews.com/2014/news/stories/07/23/sasod-honoured-red-ribbon-
international-aids-conference/ . SN has not published our response to Iana Seales as yet, but hope springs eternal! Dear Editor, I refer to the story sasod honoured with Red Ribbon at International AISA Conference (SN 7 23 14) and would appreciate the opportunity to comment. The ink has barely dried the damning indictment of the gay lifestyle in the online story "Double murder and suicide rock gay community : Suspects mother unaware son was into boys (http://guyanachronicle.com/double-murder-and-suicide-rock-gay-community-suspects-mother-unaware-son- was-into-boys/ ), but SNs tragic crusade in defending the indefensible on behalf of sasod must, it seems, go on as if nothing happened. This is a meaningless award, but significant in its publicity from the fact that it was included in a "release from the CARICOM Secretariat" ... and that it ignores the fact, truth, detail and evidence in the CDC's 2010 report "CDC Fact Sheet: HIV and AIDS Among Gay and Bisexual Men" ( http://www.torahdec.org/Downloads/FastFacts-MSM-FINAL508COMP.pdf. ), which screams for an epidemiological (rather than a human rights) response to a behaviour-based pathology that is wreaking personal and societal havoc. The CDC summarizes the impact of 4% of the population (its gay segment) on the United States as follows: 1. While CDC estimates that MSM account for just 4 percent of the U.S. male population aged 13 and older, the rate of new HIV diagnoses among MSM in the U.S. is more than 44 times that of other men (range: 522989 per 100,000 MSM vs. 12 per 100,000 other men). 2. MSM are the only risk group in the U.S. in which new HIV infections are increasing. While new infections have declined among both heterosexuals and injection drug users, the annual number of new HIV infections among MSM has been steadily increasing since the early 1990s. 3. MSM account for more than half of all new HIV infections in the U.S. each year (53%, or an estimated 28,700 infections). 4. MSM account for nearly half of the more than one million people living with HIV in the U.S. (48%, or an estimated 532,000 total persons). What are the facts for Guyana? Why wont CARICOM, or sasod, address the impact of the LGBT-pathologies on an unsuspecting world? We addressed the failure of the CARICOM Secretariat and PANCAP to consider the social-policy implications of being blindly led by "gay rights" groups in the on-line article "The Case Against PANCAP and the Decriminalization of Homosexuality" (http://www.scribd.com/doc/17685588/The-Case-Against-PANCAP-and- the-Decriminalization-of-Homosexuality ). CARICOM abdicates its responsibility to the REST of the Caribbean nation by engaging in an all-or-nothing engagement in defence of gay rights outside of epidemiological, pathological, and psycho-sexual-disorder perspectives. We also addressed the stark impact of an overt attempt by sasod to exploit the gullibility of its victims and audience via its "Child Protection Policy" in the on-line articles "Sasod, Molestation and Homosexuality: What Are the Facts for Guyana?" (http://www.scribd.com/doc/95077935/Sasod-Molestation-and-Homosexuality- What-Are-the-Facts-for-Guyana ) and "Why Isnt Homosexuality Considered a Disorder on the Basis of Its Medical Consequences? by Kathleen Melonakos, MA, RN (http://www.lifesitenews.com/resources/why-isnt- homosexuality-considered-a-disorder-on-the-basis-of-its-medical-co ). Finally, we had asked recently, and answered, the following question: Why is it that Guyana's Christians MUST oppose "gay rights?". The answer lies in the fact that homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality and transsexualism (constituting the community that defines the LGBT movement) are the only psycho-sexual disorders or pathologies so diagnosed that see as their non-negotiable end the destruction of key creation-structures in the civilized and Christian world-view: manhood, womanhood, sex, family, marriage, fact, truth, detail, logic and evidence! How significant is this? Simply put, the existence/celebration of the one means the nullification of the other. Read Melanie Phillips' blunt article "How Britain is Turning Christianity into a Crime" (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article- 404052/How-Britain-turning-Christianity-crime.html ) Sound public policy obviously lies in advocating intense and deliberate medical/psychiatric/spiritual treatment, healing, recovery, and the generalized eradication of the LGBT pathologies considered by its victims as 'essential to their well-being'. Not in blithely sharing awards where none are deserved! CARICOM must not now be infected by the confusion that Dr. Joseph Nicolosi alluded to in his comments in The Removal of Homosexuality from the Psychiatric Manual ( ): Militant gay advocates working in a small but forceful network have caused apathy and confusion within our society. They insist that acceptance of the homosexual as a person cannot occur without endorsement of the homosexual condition. Intellectual circles toowho are self-conscious about sounding intolerantproclaim homosexuality as normal, yet it is still not so for the average person for whom it just doesnt seem right. CARICOM, and sasod, should instead focus on the incise comments and leadership shown by Dr, Paul McHugh in the on-line article Surgical Sex as he confronted the LGBT pathologies: We have wasted scientific and technical resources and damaged our professional credibility by collaborating with madness rather than trying to study, cure, and ultimately prevent it.
