Interesting thought.

Maybe the suicide bombers aren't just college kids who aren't doing so well with their grades, but ones who also picked up HIV and don't want to disgrace their families...

Go out a hero and no one the wiser?

most likely a great number of innocent people in that region will suffer and die of AIDS just as they have done in Africa

Since when are these people innocent?

Isn't there something in the Bible that goes "And the sins of the fathers will be visited upon the children ...even unto the tenth generation..."

So, if a muslim like this girl, gets AIDS from her husband (who hasn't told her he has it, or maybe doesn't know), you wouldn't consider her innocent?

We are all born in sin.

Ain't for me to decide.

I'm just taking God's word for it that we are all sinners, none of us is innocent, and we all need a Savior.

be rejected along with his family by neighbors and friends, who regard HIV as synonymous with sin and shame.


That is the way it should be regarded.

I read recently that the Muslims in Africa were spreading a rumor that U.S. supplied polio vaccine was contaminated with HIV.

The result; polio, once eradicated, has returned to Africa.


So there is at least some awareness of Aids in the Muslim world.

Lovely people.

So be it. If they want to die for their cultural/religious beliefs then let it take it's logical path.

So now when a bomber explodes you not only have to worry about getting hit with nails, staples, and ball bearings, you now have to worry about the bombers blood getting into your wound? (Rhetorical)

AND (not "but") let's clean this up in the United States too! Why do we giggle at the sodomites here? Why do so many television programs highlight them as normal?

"And scattered about it, some in their overturned war-machines, some in the now rigid handling-machines, and a dozen of them stark and silent and laid in a row, were the Martians--dead!--slain by the putrefactive and disease bacteria against which their systems were unprepared; slain as the red weed was being slain; slain, after all man's devices had failed, by the humblest things that God, in his wisdom, has put upon this earth."

The problem between God and man is sin, man's rebellious attempt to establish himself in God's universe by his own wisdom and good works.

Innocent in the broader context: Can one believe both a true and a false gospel at the same time? Does not the false belief negate the true gospel it contradicts and thus damn those who believe it? Satan persuades multitudes of Muslims to reject the true gospel.

The Muslim woman you depict in the photo stands eternally condemned before God for rejecting His Son’s propitiation by faith.

Do you know that you have chosen a Malaysian (or Indonesian)i.e. Muslim name?

"Mata" means "eye" and "hari" means "day".

Do you know that you employ a tired dialectical tactic of The Left in which you change the topic and make the messenger the new issue?

I thought the correct term was "a woman for children, a boy for pleasure."

Yep, though that's incomplete. Here ya go:

A woman for duty,
A boy for pleasure,
But a melon for ecstasy.

- Old Turkish proverb

Buncha' sick puppies, for sure.

I'm glad I read all the way down the thread - I was just about to post that text from War of the Worlds.

Mysterious ways, and all that...

"...And watermelons for pure ecstacy!"

Don't ask me. I got it from an anthropology text talking about the Pathans of Afghanistan.
