Six die because church says STOP HIV treatment
http://news.sky.com/home/uk-news/article/16117269

Quote:At least six people have died in Britain after being told they had been healed of HIV and could stop taking their medication, Sky News has discovered.

There is evidence evangelical churches in London, Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow are claiming to cure HIV through God.
Sky sent three undercover reporters to the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), which is based in Southwark, south London.

Rage. Rage is building.

Yet you can sue for malpractice if a qualified doctor screws up badly.

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
The f**king janitor or the dude who runs the waterslide. Throughout history every mystery. Ever solved has turned out to be. Not Magic.

This is extremely shitty, but I just wish that people weren't stupid enough to believe their man in the sky would cure any disease, let alone HIV.

Who would I be without this world?

I don't know the answer to that... but I do know I wouldn't be me.

Skunk I like who I am.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
