The same thing that makes you believe that he heals. Given the exclusion of human will, everything else that happens is the will of god.

Having sex with an HIV positive person is not causally sufficient to contract the virus. You can have sex with such a person and still fail to become positive. You are simply exposing yourself to the risk.
Now, if there is a god and everything that happens is his will, then the causal gap between exposure and actual occurrence is the result of god's intention. Yes, you exposed yourself to the disease, but god is the one who caused it. You put yourself in the line of fire, but god is the one who pulled the trigger.

Duh, because there is no such thing as god.
Those responses are ridiculous, can't you do better, first you blame God then you say there's no God, please make up your mind.
Look carefully. The first part was answered by tenuously accepting the premise that there is a god. If there was one, he
d be responsible for causing aids and curing it. Since there is no such thing as a god, he's responsible for neither.
Your hypocrisy lies in how you assume that there is a god but he's only responsible for the cure and not the cause.
