- Yes; yours. If it were known that the embassy guards might be
- HIV-positive, *no one* would go near them. Further, HIV-positive
- does *not* automatically imply homosexual. There are many other
- ways to become infected while pursuing heterosexual practices.

- I suppose that since you find PACs to be a form of moral leprosy,
- you feel that the eco-freaks, oil companies, mining companies,
- transportation companies, beef producers, pork producers, corn
- producers, farmers in general, video equipment manufacturers,
- record companies, unions, taxpayers' rights groups, consumer
- protection groups, auto manufacturers, steel companies, and
- several hundred (at least) other groups should have their
- "unnatural" behavior "corrected"? Right.....
-
- Being free means not having to live someone elses way. That includes
- your way. I haven't seen any homosexual group attempting to outlaw
- churches, simply because they think differently. They just want
- the churches to leave them alone, to not persecute them.
-
- Unfortunantly, history has shown that there is never a shortage
- of persecuters....
