A nation full of sexual immorality is a nation full of sexual disease.
A brand new study by the Health Department of New York city has found that 26 percent of all residents of New York City have herpes.
And that is only one sexually transmitted disease.
Chlamydia, gonorrhea, infectious syphilis, AIDS and many other sexual diseases are also rampant in New York City and across the United States.
How did we get to this point?
We violated the Word of God.
If we all waited until marriage and kept sex inside of marriage, then these diseases would not be running rampant in our society.

Now might be the time for New Yorkers to take advantage of the free condom campaign the city promotes. A new study by the city's Health Department found more than a quarter of adult residents are infected with the herpes virus.
According to the study, 26 percent of city residents have the virus that causes genital herpes, an incurable sexually-transmitted infection that can cause painful genital sores and can double a person's risk for HIV.
Nationally, 19 percent of the population has the infection, according to the department.
More specifically, the study showed that the rate is higher among women than men – 36 percent compared to 19 percent – and was higher among blacks than whites – 49 percent versus 14 percent, respectively.
It also found the rate was higher among gay men than heterosexual men – 32 percent compared to 18 percent.
