Aids
Genital Herpes
Syphilis
Gonorrhea
Hepatitis B
Human Herpes Virus 8 (HHV-8)
Biblical Solution = Abstinence from adultery, fornication and sodomy.
Is this medically scientific?
This purpose of this thread is not to preach morality, but to examine the medical scientific aspects of these Biblical inhibitions relative to the above stated diseases of humanity, given that practitioners often advocate various abstinences in treatment and prevention of diseases.

I suppose this would go to the "Is It Science" forum, but I'll let one of the other admins make the call.

As an OP this is pretty scrappy.
Your idea is clear enough but why not actually write a proper opening post. This seems like an idea that came to you and you just scribbled down some notes, perhaps you could turn those notes into a more polished paragraph to promote discussion.
TTFN,
AW

Re: As an OP this is pretty scrappy.
I've edited in additional comment, AdminWounded. How's that?

Re: As an OP this is pretty scrappy.
To be honest I still think it isn't up to par. Someone else might feel differently, but I really think that a proper OP should have more to it than a list of STDs, a quasi mathematical statement, a linguistically dubious question and one very long framing sentence.
I've seen you write very eloquent posts, so I don't see why you are presenting your OP in such a haphazard fashion.
Your list frankly does nothing for your argument, why not just frame it as a general question on sexually transmitted diseases?
TTFN,
WK

Re: As an OP this is pretty scrappy.
Hi AdminWounded. Imo to add anything to what I've presented would be to widen the perameters of the topic beyond what I want. Because of the nature of this topic, I prefer to narrow the discussion to the question in the OP, so to keep the discussion civil.
So far as admin, I've advocated others keep the topic brief and to the point. That's what I've tried to do here as well. I'm not sure I understand your problem. Perhaps you could elaborate. Thanks.

Re: As an OP this is pretty scrappy.
I agree with AdminWounded, that it is not completely clear what you want to debate.
I am going to promote it anyway, since it seems that attempts to have you improve the OP are not having much effect.
I am putting it in Social Issues and Creation/Evolution.
