The University of Alabama has announced the finding of a “crucial missing link in the search for the origin of HIV-1, the virus responsible for human AIDS.” It was discovered in chimp feces in Cameroon. Since the announcement, Science Daily and National Geographic have published articles on the findings. The international community has been seeking to make headway against a pandemic that affected five million people last year. The origin of AIDS is an important find, and is one step closer to the discovery of how HIV first affected humans. Study team member Beatrice Hahn, a professor of medicine at the University of Alabama at Birmingham stated, "Based on what we know about the biology of these viruses, you need to be exposed to infectious blood or body fluids," she said. "You don't get it by petting a chimp." NG suggests the possibility of humans eating chimps, which is common. However, it would have to include the consumption of raw infected blood which could have occurred through eating undercooked or raw meat.

Could it have been an act of bestiality that caused the virus to jump to humans?  Considering the fact that it is widely believed and taught that chimps are a close relative to humans, together with the sexual revolution of the 60s and 70s, when AIDS first emerged…

Somehow, it happened. Hahn said, "We think it's likely that the cross-species transmission took place locally" in the Cameroon. After it first infected humanity it quickly spread to metropolitan areas and throughout the world.

It is interesting to note that the spread of HIV has notoriously involved sexual promiscuity. If biblical guidelines of faithful monogamous heterosexual relationships were followed, AIDS would not be the ever growing problem that it is today.

Yet many "authorities," such as the American Psychological Association, reject “abstinence only” programs as an effective way of preventing HIV/AIDs. It is alleged that “there is little scientific evidence that these programs work.” In reality, abstinence till marriage and faithfulness in marriage is the only 100% guarantee against contracting HIV/AIDs! But it is assumed by the APA that the majority of youth in our society would not follow abstinence and that other “precautions” need to be taught. They fail to recognize however, that “safe sex education” totally undermines the effectiveness of teaching abstinence. Why train and equip students to practice illicit sexuality and then “encourage” them not too? It is like giving a child a loaded gun, showing them exactly how it works and how to fire it and then encouraging them not to fire it.

When will the world realize that God was right all along?
