Of course, to large numbers of BuShite "Christians"[sic], "AIDS is God's judgement on queers" is Revealed Truth. In point of fact, I believe it was the sainted and revered BuShite sage Jerry Falwell (or Pat Robertson? - do a web search; it'll turn upeasily) that originally made the statement I plagiarized above. The "Moral"[sic] "Majority"[sic] and others of their ilk are still "preaching"[sic] it.

Direct your anger and outrage at them, not me.
