No matter how you slice it, a man who contracted AIDS by his own wilful and deliberate sin is not a hero. And the hanging question is how many others did he infect ?
I don't understand your rage because people are showing sympathy. I am pretty sure he has never in any way affected
my health.
Perhaps you are in the high risk category or are afraid you are.
What? Have you never sinned? And the hanging question is how many others did you injure by YOUR sin?
Are you saying that someone who has sinned can not be considered a hero?
If he has turned to God and asked forgiveness and put his faith in Jesus, then he is O.K., despite your misgivings...

That is a rather cold reply, don't you think? I too believe that the homosexual lifestyle is a sin, but as people they too are made in the image and and likeness of God, and should therefore be treated with the same respect and dignity as any other member of the human race.
It is a shame that this man is suffering such a painful death, and it is even more tragic to think that it was brought upon himself through his own behavior, or that others will suffer the same fate because of him.
Again, I'm not defending this man's lifestyle, but we are all going to die in the same state: hoping for God's mercy and forgiveness. We are all sinners, let's not be so presumptuous as to put limits on God's ability to forgive, or presume that OUR sins can't possibly be judged as harshly as another's.
