Yes, "ignorant at"
And he quotes Wordpress as his "research".
Not even wikianswers, or answers.yahoo.
You know, if there is a god, and he is actually especially kindly disposed toward you, he would have given you real HIV infection to shut you up and stop you from making a fool of yourself here.

Yeah, because as we all know, a blog post can never be wrong or biased - especially one talking about 'HIV "infection" '.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Why would a god heal selfish, insane dickheads of HIV and not the millions of innocent little children who are born with the disease? Seems more than a little bit random, doesn't it? More than a little bit random. So random that it couldn't possibly have been done by a conscious being with super intelligence and unlimited power.

One that works in ways so mysterious and so far beyond our ken that even when it doesn't do anything, or does the opposite of what might be expected, that's still proof of its unlimited power.

Any other blogs you'd like to enter as "research?"
Quote:There are several documented cases (mine was not one of them, even though my doctor at the time tried.) But now it is well documented that people do get Healed, but as I said their either labeled a faker or their strain of the HIV virus was somehow compromised and the body fought it off on their own somehow. God is seldom if ever apart of the equasion in the official documentation. Even if the patient is convinced.
Okay, Drich: let's say I accept your story as true. Absolutely nothing in what you've presented even remotely indicates that your specific god reached down from the heavens and healed you. You had a thing, and you got better from that thing: you've presented no reason for any of us to believe that whatever praying you were doing in any way affected this, or that the god of your religion was involved at all. You've just made a huge leap of logic, completely without justification, and are now making up some hostile conspiracy to keep down evidence of similar claims from the official sources.
The absolute best one could say about your story is that you got better from being sick and you don't know why. Stop trying to cram your god in every hole in your knowledge; I know there's a lot of them, but he just doesn't fit.

Well, this thread just got interesting...

I bet I have nightmares as well.
