AIDS is caused not by sodomy or drug use, but by a lack of federal funding.

But, let's not say that certain "life choices" are directly linked to being on the receiving end of the AIDs virus. That would NOT be "politically correct".

By the CDC's estimate, condoms are 85% effective in reducing the spread of AIDS. Promoting condom use to PREVENT aids is murder.

Perhaps one could see if there has been an increase in GSA clubs in high schools as well?

Has it ever occurred to these people that stopping the perverted behavior that leads to the the disease might just be the answer to the problem?

Correct. It is never "safe sex" to have sex with a partner that is HIV+. It is stupid to have sex with some whose HIV status you don't know.

I don't get it, gaiety leads to a disease? (And neither does # 8!) I'll make sure to always be, hey what's the antonym of "gay", dour?!

Prevention Fatigue: So that's what they're calling it these days.

Homosexual sex addiction is the disease. AIDS is but a symptom. HIV is natures way of saying slow down.

I'm having a hard time sympathizing with these people. I'm afraid we need the HIV rate to skyrocket to hopefully wake people up to the fact that homosexual acting out is not a "lifestyle preference", it's a horrible, horrible sickness that is tantamount to a death sentence for its practitioners.

Followed by eternity in hell, but that's another thread.

Not surprising really, despite the millions and millions of dollars they spend on advertising. I suspect many wallowing in the "gay" deathstyle are celebrating there perceived judicial fiat victories. What's a celebration without an orgy?

I predict that in the near future, we're going to see a much more deadly strain of HIV develop...

This came up at the dinner table tonight--who's the last famous person to die of AIDS? I came up with Arthur Ashe, who contracted the disease from a blood transfusion, if I remember correctly.

"AIDS is caused not by sodomy or drug use, but by a lack of federal funding."

Federally funded? Does that mean if you don't have AIDS, you get some kind of a federal fund?
