- That just means you haven't or cannot hear it. It has been
- said. I have heard it said *exactly* in that manner, on
- national television by more than one 'thumper'.

- :Rather, AIDS

-
- That too. but let's not leave out the ones that claim AIDS
- is an deliberate and direct punishment from the old man in
- the white robe and flowing white beard for daring to be queer.

- :Like
