So in an effort to get into the live journal community and cause useless stupid drama for people to talk about I have the following message: Die.
Hugs and Kisses, Alden
P.S. Merrill, I've finally decided that I can do better. We're breaking up. Bye. :Db |

| AIDS Cures Fundimentalists |
[Jul. 31st, 2006|01:29 am] |
AIDS is a debilitating epidemic that became well known in the 1980s and affected mostly the gay community in the beginning. Since its deadly appearance upon America and other countries, especially Africa, it has grown to pandemic proportions. In America AIDS takes the lives of many African Americans, many of whom are not gay. Even though this fact, among other facts known about AIDS, are well known in the American psyche there are a few people who strongly believe that AIDS is a plague of sorts upon homosexuals for living a life of sin. These people are mainly homophobic Fundamentalist Christians. Though I am sure there are other homophobic fundamentalists religious groups that have the same feeling, but this article deals specifically with Fundamentalist Christians (Fundies) and the ideas they practice in relation to AIDS and homosexuality and this author's views on the whole thing.
By the belief of many conservative Fundies, the Holy Bible says it all. Homosexuality is a sin. If you practice it, you are going to Hell. No ifs, ands, or buts. You are going to Hell. Pure and simple. And really, they are right. The Bible, especially in the Old Testament, really goes to town on how homosexuality is a sin. So, rather than arguing about how homosexuality isn't a sin and that interpreting the Bible in that way is just foolish and a waste of time I will concede that the Bible does in fact say that homosexuality is a sin. However, I do not agree that AIDS cures gays, which is a popular saying among homophobic Fundies. It is my belief that AIDS is really a gift from the Fundies god for the Fundies.
You see, the god of the Fundies is a mixture of the Old Testament God and the New Testament Jesus Christ. It is a very interesting mix of fire and brimstone and love for your fellow man. For the most part I would like to believe that the Fundies' god is a god of compassion with a desire to test the faith of his/her/it's followers and AIDS is the perfect test of faith and reward. Now, I can understand how this would be confusing to many people, but hear me out.
AIDS is a disease which is transmitted primarily through sexual contact of some sort with a person who is infected (note: for purposes of this article, people who are affected will be referred to as "sinners"). Now, most sinners who are infected will die within a matter of months or years, and the process is an agonizing and painful process. Your immune system is attacked by the AIDS virus and pretty much begins to attack the body. When a regular person becomes a sinner they open themselves up for any disease that could potentially kill them. Whether it be strep throat or the common cold, every disease is a threat to the sinner's life. So, we can all agree that becoming a sinner is a painful ordeal to go through?
Okay, now we're on the same page. So, how is this a gift from on high? Simple. Whenever a Fundie has a crisis of faith; for example, fucking your old high school girlfriend at your 10th high school reunion, even though you have a loving wife and two children, the Fundie opens themselves up to undergo a spiritual quest of sorts. You see, when a Fundie becomes a sinner they immediately begin to evaluate what they did wrong to be punished by this unfortunate turn of events. Even at times they might spurn the name of their god for befalling them with this accursed disease. However, as time passes they learn to accept their inevitable death and ask for forgiveness for their sins and eventually come back into the embrace of their god. Then they die to be brought into the loving arms of their savior/deity because they have suffered just like him and accepted his love.
Now, since its been established that AIDS is a cure for Fundies, I think it is only proper that we extend this gift sent from Heaven to them as quickly as possible. I encourage every infected sinner to donate a pint of their devil-tainted blood to their local Fundamentalist church. If you are a Fundie sinner, I encourage you to go to your congregation and spread the love of your god to each and every member of your church. The most plausible (and fun :)) way to do this, I feel, would be to have a massive orgy. Not only will you be spreading the love of your god to each of your members, but you'll all begin your journey to Heaven together. I mean, what better way to get to the pearly gates than with all your friends at roughly the same time?
Remember, as a Fundie sinner it is your responsibility to make sure that all people of your faith make it to Heaven. Leave no child, adult, or elderly person behind. This life is fleeting, only the next world matters. And the only way to get there is with AIDS. |
