Study: Sexual minorities live average of 12 years less in homophobic communities

Phobia in this case means extreme repulsion, rejection, or disgust. Hydrophobic people aren't "afraid" of water.

And? It's still a science. What field, exactly, are you a professional in that somehow puts you above social scientists? Also, mathematics can be used to manipulate statistics which in turn can be used to create propaganda.

This. Did you even read the definition I posted?

Just because some people might have different opinions or preferences on things it doesn't mean they're afraid of them, gamefreak.

So, in what way is the study flawed? If you're so certain, why not review it yourself?

Fair enough. I'm referring, though, to the fact that the way in which you defend your opinion so aggressively mimics the behavioral patterns of a phobia.
Also, on a side note: If you believe that acceptance of homosexual individuals and other minorities will lead to inevitable moral decay and degeneracy (The specific consequences of which you haven't made clear at all) then with what science would you prove this? If you were to actually answer my request to substantiate that claim, how would you do so? Would you do it with physics? Because it sounds to me like a social sciences matter, a field from which you refuse to accept any results.
