Killing them for being gay doesn't work for me, and I am pretty sure Christ would be unhappy about it as well.

If country X had a 25% AIDS rate coming solely from, say, carnal acts involving very tall people, and the folks who engage in such acts insist that they are interested in very tall people, and lots if them, and might also engage in normal relations with an unknowing or bullied spuse. You might put a restriction with such a penalty in your land, unless you really wanted half your population sick and dying.

Uganda had the highest rate of AIDS in all of Africa, which had the highest in the world. Needles are not the problem, buggery (of all combinations) is the problem. It is easiest to legislate against the homosexual type.

Had.

There has been considerable interest in understanding what may have led to Uganda's dramatic decline in HIV prevalence, one of the world's earliest and most compelling AIDS prevention successes.

The above from 2006. Not related to the disgusting evil of persecution and more they are currently promoting.

In fact, once all medical aid and care is denied to those with HIV, no matter what their sexual preference, they will be afraid to seek help - and now that Uganda has thrown out many of the NGOs considered to have been partly responsible for this success - HIV will increase.

It's just evil and prelest, by the father of all evil and old as time. They can try to pass it off as Christianity but I am amazed anyone believes it.
