TOPIC:               WHY “SAFE SEX” IS NOT SAFE

WHAT IS SAFE SEX?
“Safe sex” is a sex education term meaning “sexual relation with safety or
protective measures against pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases”.
Today, the purported key means of this “safety” is the use of condoms, which is
made with latex material. (Latex by best manufacturers has intrinsic holes called
voids, which are 20 times larger than the HIV/AIDS virus).
 
HOW SAFE IS CONDOM SAFETY?
Studies show that use of condom to prevent pregnancy is only effective in 80% of
cases in one year. Pregnancy is usually possible in a woman only for 15% of the
year. Deadly Disease like HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and
Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) are transmissible 100% of the year. Unlike disease,
which are never desired at any time, pregnancy is but a blessing desired at one time
and unwanted at another. At 80% safety, condom could be dared for family
planning within marriage but not beyond that.
 
Below is condom safety profile against dangerous Sexually Transmitted Diseases:
HIV/AIDS is incurable and deadly    -        Condom safety is 70%
HBV is incurable and deadly            -        Condom safety is 80%
HPV is incurable and deadly             -        No condom safety         
Herpes is incurable, not deadly         -        No condom safety
Molluscum is incurable, not deadly  -        No condom safety

Syphillis though curable is deadly    -        No condom safety         
Chancroid is curable not deadly       -        No condom safety
Chlamydia is curable, not deadly      -        No condom safety
 
Bacterial and protozoal urethritis (e.g. Gonorrhea) and pelvic inflammatory
diseases (PID) though curable could cause infertility and only have a condom
safety of 70%
 
WHY SAFETY SEX CAMPAIGN DESPITE THE DANGERS?
“Safe sex” is not a campaign for safety but a campaign for “nihilism” (i.e.
rejection of all religions and moral principles and opposition to all restraining
authority).  This is the reason for the foolhardy condom safe sex propaganda
instead of campaign for abstinence and marriage fidelity. The dangerous
propagandists, led by Planned Parenthood organisation in America, propagate a
misconstrued sex freedom or positive sex philosophy. This philosophy is that
since sex is private, it should be subject only to the free choice of the
concerned partners; it should not be subjected to religious, ethical or scientific
regulations. They apply the same argument to abortion and homosexuality even
bestiality.
 
The modern ‘safe’ sex campaign is not only irreligious and unethical; it is also
unscientific, unrealistic and unsustainable. At its heart and base, it is self-
destructive, wicked and deceitful.
 
Natural common sense, most cultural practices and religious norms all through the
ages uphold safe sex only as premarital abstinence and marital fidelity. Christ
revealed the ultimate safe sex measure as premarital abstinence
and monogamous, lifelong marital fidelity. Matt. 19:4-9. However, condom safe
sex campaigners and modern sexualizers insist that restraining people to abstain is
interference with their freedom, they forget that even asking someone to use the
condom is interference with his/her freedom also. They say that abstinence and
fidelity are impracticable and uncivilized.
 
To them, civilisation is “nihilisation” and annihilation. They have redefined
freedom to mean doing what one chooses irrespective of whether it is right or
wrong.  Common good is not significant for them, personal choice only matters.
Yet we all know that freedom is being free to do what one should for one’s good
and the good of all.  Freedom is not conscientious blindness but sound liberty to

2
act right. For the nihilist nothing is good or bad, yet they say that preaching
abstinence is bad while propagating promiscuity is good.
 
Why should we blindfold our youths to damage themselves physically,
psychologically, morally, emotionally and spiritually? Let us arise to soundness
and say, “No!” to jeopardising the human race through promiscuity. Let us insist
on taking the right action – premarital abstinence and monogamous, life-long
marital fidelity. This alone is true safe sex at its best.
 
FAILURE OF CONDOM SAFE SEX CLAIMS
When Europe and America acted right with respect to communicable diseases, the
diseases were largely eliminated in their society. Now with regards to STDs they
are acting wrong with condom safe sex movement. And they have only succeeded
in multiplying STDs by four times in the past 30 years, (i.e. doubling the STDs
every 7 years). Out of 250 million population of USA, 56 million (i.e. 1 in every 5)
has STD and 45 million of these STDs are incurable such as HIV and HPV. Of this
56 million, 80% are not aware that they have STDs yet, till their case becomes
serious. Every year 12 million people are infected and re-infected (i.e. 33,000
daily), of these 63% (i.e. 22,000 daily) are under 25 years of age. What a
future!!!. These figures are authoritative official figure from CDC Atlanta, US.

Where will this take us? The time to make the right choice and act right is now or
never. Not only STDs are rising, the murderous practice of abortion with
accompanying unwanted teenage pregnancies has quadrupled as a result of
condom safe sex propaganda. Thank God that not all Americans think wrong: the
Pro-Life organisation is at work and has shown that in colleges where abstinence is
taught as safe sex among teenagers, STD and pregnancies crash down as soon as
the message is taken.
 
In Uganda, Africa, HIV was about to wipe out the nation because of promiscuity.
When the national government chose to say no to the condom safe sex blunder and
began to act right with their campaign for abstinence and marriage fidelity, HIV
was reduced by 75% over the last 10 years.
 
Hear the Ugandan President Museveni speak:

 “I have been stressing a return to our time tested cultural practices which
emphasizes fidelity and condemnation to premarital or extramarital sex…
meanwhile we are being told that only a thin piece of rubber stands between
us and the death of our continent.”
 
The Bible says:
“Flee sexual immorality….  He who commits sexual immorality sins against
his own body.”  (1 Cor. 6:18.)
 
“Be not deceived, neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor
effeminate, nor homosexuals... shall inherit the kingdom of God.”  (1Cor.
6:9-10).
 
Dr. Robert Renfield of Walter Reed Army Institute said:
“Simply put, condoms fail.  And condoms fail at a rate unacceptable for me
as a physician to endorse them as a strategy to be promoted as meaningful
AIDS protection”.
 
CONSEQUENCES OF PREMARITAL SEX
What we call Premarital Sex today is what the Scriptures call Fornication which
is a sin against God and defilement against your body. Fornication (together with
Adultery, Prostitution and other forms of promiscuity) belongs to sins of Sexual
Immorality. Those who justify and engage in fornication often go on to other
forms of promiscuity or prostitution and even to perversions both violent and
aberrant.

“Flee sexual immorality. ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he
who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body” (1 Cor. 6:18, WEB).

“But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be
mentioned among you, as becomes saints;” (Eph. 5:3, WEB).

“It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual
immorality; that each of you should learn to control your own body in a way that
is holy and honorable, not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know
God;” (1 Thess. 4:3-5, WEB).

Fornication results in unwanted Pregnancy which drives people to heartless
bloodshed of innocent babies by Abortion. Abortion has many health hazards that
may lead to infections, infertility (due to womb damage), and death.
Use of condoms and contraceptives may prevent pregnancy but will not justify
your iniquity and or prevent your defilement.

Fornication also leads to Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs).

Use of condoms to prevent STDs is a mirage because it does not work well in real
life. Condom safety is about 70% for HIV/SIDS, HBV and Bacterial/Protozoal
STDs (PID and Gonorrhea), but 0% for HPV, Herpes, Molluscum, Syphilis,
Chancroid and Chlamydia.

Fornication is associated with being drawn away from godly commitment and
consecration to rather desire indulging in delinquent and rebellious godlessness
such as bad company, chat-chewing, indecent dressing, crazy fashion (queer
hairstyles odd bangles and tattooing), recklessness, pornography usage, obscenity,
flirting, partying, drinking, smoking and drug abuse, leading to searing of
conscience, cohabitation, prostitution, perversions, criminality, and other dangers
of all sorts that destroy the future of youths and cause harm and death.
James 1:13-16
(13) Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be
tempted with evil, neither tempts he any man:
(14) But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and
enticed.
(15) Then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin: and sin, when it is finished,
brings forth death.
(16) Do not err, my beloved brethren.

Fornication strays away from God and sells away to the devil to bond to other
fornicators and network of promiscuity demons that destroy both the foundation
and success of marriage.

Fornication must be repented of and forgiveness obtained for healing to be

possible. Fornication must be resisted as evil and rejected as unacceptable for
Christians with commitment to God never to give room for fornication.

WE MUST SAY NO TO PROMISCUITY AND ACT RIGHT
