It's funny, Andrew Sullivan, of all people, blames the Church for AIDS deaths in Africa.
Hmm Andrew, I don't think the Church has ever infected anyone with AIDS, can you say the same?
BTTT
I was saying the same thing earlier; Do people like Sullivan actually think that people who were engaging in dangerous behavior--doing drugs, gay sex, etc. etc.--would have suddenly thought "Hey, before I have anal with this drug addict, I'd better slap on a jimmycap!"? Moron!
The Church teaches that anal sex is sinful and forbidden, and that abstention is better than condoms.
When observed, AIDS is only spread by blood xfers or dirty needles.
This pretty much sums it up.
And "I believe" you're right!
"I believe I can fly!"
Yeah, two, three, years ago, I liked reading Andrew Sullivan.
But then he became more and more self-obsessed, to the exclusion of all else.
I mean, I have some causes for which I feel very strongly and very passionately, but they do not dominate my life (and whatever I write).
But Andrew Sullivan is a "one issue" writer; no matter the subject, it is important only as it relates to gay marriage--the guy cannot write about the price of soybeans in Burma, or about the physics of sympathetic vibration, without linking it, somehow, to gay marriage.
