you are a ****** idiot...they live on less than a dollar a day and most have no means of accquiring condoms...some of you ****** idiots need to be educated before you open your stupid ****** mouths

Abstinence and pulling out are free, last I checked.

I sure hope you don't think that pulling out will prevent you from getting AIDS....or giving it.

What makes you think you're better than us?

Or, more correctly, not inferior?

whos us...i'm not with you and i'm not against you...it just sad when people dont show a shred of humanity...people oversimplify and say that they're bringing it on themselves, when infact there are a multiple of factors and in the end, its helpless people dying by the thousands everyday.

Sorry to be so hardlined, but here's the low down...

You are in control of your own destiny. You are a product of the decisions you make.

crap don't grow in the desert. don't have water and aids are rampant? then get the heck out and make something of yourself. Last I knew people have two feet and can go to greener pastures.

gee? see that? greener pastures....hmmmm....water, food, all kinds of good stuff. It's interesting that the OP brings money into the equation, because money has nothing to do with it. who cares about a dollar a day? As long as you put a roof over your head and food on the table money can be eliminated.

This is called darwin. People are a product of their decisions and choices and nothing else. choose to stay in africa...

well, one knows the outcome and doesn't do anything about it???? You will get no sympathy from me.

well that settles it...just cause someone been a member for a long time and has thousands of posts, he can still be stupid.

come on...you were prolly one of those people who said that the poor people who dint leave new orleans were stupid.

Inspector,

My post count has nothing to do with anything.

You see, I have been to Africa on missions and I have helped as best I could to provide communication systems. But at the same time I am a social darwinist and believe the laws of mother nature reign supreme over any actions of man.

If you couldn't "get" my hardlined post and the truth behind it then so be it.

"you are the product of your own actions"

Just think about that for a moment. I know, I know...its so unfair. But that's the way it is.

i dunno about you, but i pick someone up when they fall...not step over them and keep on walking...and dont give me this darwin bullshit, yes we all follow that to a certain degree but I'm not down with millions dying cause nature is taking its course...by your argument, why help old, poor and sickly people...why its just darwinism taking care of them. Just cause you've been there a few times, doesnt make you the end all on the discussion

Yes, but old, poor sickly people can't help themselves. The africans can. They just choose to spread aids and live in the dirt.

Darwinism is taking care of the weak.
