Actually I prefer to call myself "spiritual". Religioisness is just a set of rules with no meaning. I've found the bible to have much meaning =]

Well it depends on what you mean by better off. And it also depends on how many people they've had encounters with. If homosexuality is a matter of "hormonal levels being different" than it would also mean the sex drive is higher which would most likely put them at a higher risk. Straight people can have this drive too. To be honest, I would have to do more research.
Is there a reason you're asking this?

Yes. Anyone can get diseases overtime. Though people who are more promiscoius have a higher risk.

From what I know from my study of the bible on this subject and what I know about cleanliness (physically speaking in this instance), if God loves us he wants us to be healthy. Everything in the bible is NOT for God's benefit, it's for ours. There are serious consequences that come from being involved in sexual activity, and in cases of same-sex, it's a disease factor.
Now I am not saying all homosexual people have diseases, but over time they can develop. Its been proven. And its isn't just physical diseases like STDs there's something very, very, destructive that harms the mind as well and ultimately harms the soul. Sin is a disease of the soul and has brought about many, many, tragedies.
The ten commandments keep you out of trouble. If you don't lie, steal, commit adultry, covet, etc. than no one can accuse you of doing so. And most importantly, you have a clean concience and a firm knowledge of where you are going after your short time on earth.
On our own we are little more than bits of stone and glass. Together we are the Body of Christ. Holy Bible: Mosaic is an invitation to experience Christ in His Word and in the responses of his people. Each week, as you reflect on guided Scripture readings aligned with the church seasons, you will receive a wealth of insight from historical and contemporary writings.
