OK, that sounds good, let's work on truth. And I take it that you would not include yourself in that group you characterized with the phrase "lies they tell themselves". So if you became aware of facts you would have no choice but to change your opinion to coincide with the truth, lest you become one of those that lies to themselves.
That is factually incorrect, that is not the truth. While the disease was noticed in the United States in homosexual men in 1981, it was certainly not peculiar to them. The truth is that it was the combined groups of haemophiliacs and homosexual men that led to the discovery of the virus. A young girl suffering from haemophilia who contracts AIDS in 1982 makes it clear that the disease is not peculiar to homosexual men. You ignored my truthful comment about haemophiliacs being critical to the discovery of the disease. Ignoring truth cannot be good.
Since then the disease has spread to people from every walk of life. Again the truth is that it is a disease and it is not peculiar to a single group. The truth is, that present epidemiology of AIDS is that hetrosexuals are the largest group of people suffering from this disease.
I also notice that you do not use the term virus. Perhaps it is just the wording you have chosen, do you admit the truth that AIDS is caused by a virus?
Virus right? These other animals, simian apes in particular are infected with a virus. The animals are not referred to as having a syndrome, they have a viral infection. That is the truth.
Well that does not seem to be the truth. Since the virus and mechanisms of transmission through bodily fluids has become known it is homosexual men who were at the forefront of advocating condom use and safe practices.
In fact the truth is it is hetrosexuals that currently have the lowest rate of compliance with safe sex practices and proven by the increased rates of AIDS within that cohort.
And here is where you absolutely leave truth on the platform as your train of thought leaves the station. You ignored my question previously about the discovery of AIDS not being the same as the origin of AIDS and it is the vital core issue from a purely scientific perspective.
The truth is AIDS is caused a virus. The truth is no matter how much anal sex two men engage in they cannot create a virus. Lest of course you believe homosexual men have the power to create life itself, and somehow I doubt that is your belief. One can transmit the virus to another but they cannot create the virus.
Surely you will admit the truth that homosexual men cannot create a form of life. Why that would mean they are Gods!
What do you mean by "issue has evolved"? Do you mean virus? Do you mean the fact that a virus evolved?
There is no issue that evolved in a dialectic sense. There is a body of over 30 years of extensive scientific research that has resulted in the knowledge of facts, truthful facts. Certainly not all is known and research continues into both treatment and prevention.
I would also suggest that exhibiting some compassion for another human being dying from a disease, regardless of where you believe the disease came from, would do you far more good then them.
Finally we get back to the original questions that I asked you, but were never clearly answered. I certainly don't want you thinking I have misinterpreted what you said, and since I am not that bright, and there seems to be some confusion over the terms AIDS versus virus, could you tell me the truth about:
Do you reject the idea that HIV-1 and HIV-2 originated as a mutation of SIV?
And if you do reject that idea where do you believe the virus originated (please understand I am asking about the point of origination not discovery or mechanism of transmission)?
