>By Theory1 (the accepted one), it is. It's a lot of work catching HIV through normal sex, but when you go anal, the risk increases due to friction(accidental blood transfusion). By Theory2 (as suggested by Peter Duesberg), AIDS is a junkie problem, but also a gay problem since many of them rely on aprodisiacs in order to have anal intercourse.

1) look at Africa
2) look at the USA please if you talk about "friction" and your "aprodisiacs"

it is a humanity problem, not a gay problem. it /is/ true that there are more non-heterosexual people infected, but the problem lies not only in the "gay community" or whatever you call it.
i do have a feeling that straight US citizen have a bigger rate than gay europeans, but i honestly haven't checked the stats. what is true, is that europe in general has a much lower rate of AIDS sufferers than the USA. (circumcision giving protection against STDs and AIDS, anyone?) (also, any AIDS report in the USA will only compare their rates with Africa or at best South America... spin much? shame much?)

>Would you like that to apply to freedom of speech as well( I intended that to be discussion #3, but we can have a preview here )? Do you feel freedom of speech should be moderated as well? So that some people should choose what opinions people should and should not have?

you have the freedom, but you are being rude. you don't HAVE TO, y'know.
fora are moderated with a reason: to keep arseholes away that come to cause trouble. fora exist for the discussion of whatever topic, and not quite there for keeping and keeping to make new off-topic shite, and undermining people and bashing them etc.
this is not about opinions, this is about netiquette, which, i believe, you have no idea about.

>Thanks, AJ. You're basically alright too, but you might be a little too politically correct. I really want to have some interesting discussions concerning this alternative HIV/AIDS theory and, after that, Holocaust denial. The discussions won't be that fun if we don't have an open mind about alternative theories/opinions!

this is not the place to talk about Holocaust denial, please go and discuss it on a board where it can be the topic. perhaps a history/politics board. we don't have interest in this whatever it is.

ralesk who doesn't feel like using capital letters.
