Radio host: God will cure AIDS if gays stop having sex ("If you’re a man, stop using poppers!")



Conservative radio host Bryan Fischer believes there’s a simple solution for those infected with the AIDS virus: simply stop having sex and God will make it all go away.

Fischer said on his “family” radio program this week that instead of researching a cure for AIDS, scientists should begin following his message.

“If you’re a man, stop using poppers,” he said, according to liberal advocacy group Right Wing Watch. “Stop having sex with other men, and don’t shoot up. The beauty of that solution is that it doesn’t require billions and billions of dollars.”

“We really don’t know what kind of recuperate powers God may have built into the human body,” he said. “The body maybe able to restructure and restore its capacity — its immunological capacity — if we stop subjecting it to all these harmful behaviors. Other words, if you stop shooting up, or you stop inhaling these nitrates, you stop having random sex with mistresses or total strangers, your body may begin to heal.”

It's an inhalant that's commonly used amongst gay men as it typically relaxes and smooths muscles, including the anus which makes for easier anal sex.

"body may"....

your body won't necessarily heal, IT MAY heal...

and if it doesn't, then that was "God's plan" all along. Ask for forgiveness and pray.

are tweakers. What's with the eyes?? Do they think if they open their eyes REALLY WIDE that they'll see evil more clearly? Or, are they all bred from the same Bachmann gene pool? Oh...and then, there's the hair.

Hey, Fishcher? Your God hates you for saying shit like this. All of a sudden he's bombarded with prayers asking, "So, God...if you can cure AIDS if everyone stops having sex, what do we have to do to get you to feed starving children?"
