Contaminated needles.

My bad :v

I personally think we do need cures for these diseases. Too many lives get cut short because of these types of problems so those that are born with these diseases, barely have a chance to actually experience life. Prevention seems to only do so much, but not really enough. The problem after getting the cures would be getting it out to the people who need it.

The cost would probably be too high and special relief groups would have to help get it to those who need them.

There are 6 billion people, AIDS isn't that much of a threat

[Sam]

A threat to what, exactly?

Cynical as it is, I'm usually not concerned with whether or not a disease is curable unless I have said disease.

Same here, I also agree with not bothering finding cures for such diseases.
this world is overpopulated.

and yah. just let people die from natural causes.
as terrible as it sounds.

if I ever get cancer or aids. oh well, there goes life.

[Prodigy]

If I ever get AIDS I'm going to give it to whomever I can find. Make it a bloody epidemic. Go work at a Jimmy Hale Mission [hobos] or something and put a bit of my spit or something in the water. Go on a raping spree. Saliva on baby bottles, sippy cups, and pacifiers.

No, but seriously. I do see it as a consequence. See the rest of the animals in the world? They live outside. Prey to the predators of the night. Could die any day, everyday. We as humans protect ourselves, whether by shelter or by arms. Common knowledge will tell you that we're going to have to die somehow.
We're killing the earth. Now, I'm no activist. And, blatantly, I really couldn't care as long I'm fine in my lifetime, but the earth is getting pretty torn up. It's come to the point where pretty much we only die by our own hands. Any attack from a wild animal, unless of course you live in a third world country or something, is due to a person's own stupidity. Yet as stupid as people are, animals aren't all that bright either. They aren't killing enough. We aren't killing each other enough.

So here come the diseases and, let's say it this way, cellular abnormalities. Personally, there isn't enough raping or buttf*cking yet to settle the voracious appetites of these two complexes.We need to get down to, say, 3 or 4 billion at the most. And I'm being polite. If my views on human life are just a little less than considerate, oh bloody well.

Cynical as it is, I'm usually not concerned with whether or not a disease is curable unless I have said disease.

I like your style, indeed.

[violent_anger]

Odd how people just pull numbers out of their asses and say that that would be the ideal population we should stay at.

[Prodigy]

Odd how people don't read previous posts. Well, they're saying 6 to 8 million. I think half would be sufficient.

[violent_anger]

Alright, so why do you think the world population is twice as large as it would ideally be?

[Prodigy]

I didn't say that it would be the ideal number, either, va va voom. The population, however, far encompasses what it should. Why do you think we have these diseases? Population control. And hell, even that's not working so well. It's not my fault the world seems to revolve around sex more than it ever has, however much I wish it was. Worldwide Genocide. I like that. It rhymes and it gets the point across. The plight is not the number itself, but the actual reduction.

lrn2reed.

[Cicero]

Yep, and off course the fact that this world can't carry more then 1 billion over the number there is now. Aproximatly. Not enough room to grow food for everyone, you see.

I'm on your side, but spit doesn't spread AIDS. Blood spreads it (I.E. blood transfusions, genital secretions, needles, etc.).

The human condition creates this drive for immortality within humans. Since we are conscious and have abstract thoughts that go beyond basic instinct, we believe that each person should live forever. Of course, looking at modern science, we've done one cracker-jack job at increasing our life span by a good 40 - 60 years (based on average life span in early centuries of 40 - 60 years before death). We, however, believe that the life span shouldn't exist for humans. Or at least, that's what each doctor says when they treat a patient in an attempt to cure whatever disease may exist in their body. The same goes for anyone doing yoga, or jogging down the street. They all want to either stall their death for as long as possible, or they want to live forever.

As futile as each attempt is, people do it in order to keep this gamble that is life going.

We also need to keep our shitty population in check

A general quote directed towards all who believe in population control.

When I was in school I had to write a satire. Mine was on Population Control of all things.

Wanna hear it?

*Ahem* In order to control the increasing population of the world we must take action now. Abortion legalized to prevent any unnecessary births in the world for a start. The so-called "death row" inmates are piling up with no signs of relief from their pathetic, meaningless lives in prison. In order to provide relief to the prison system and to speed up this increasingly arduous list of "people in society that need to die" we must allow for an auction to be had. The auction sells the capability of being one of the executioners - if one wishes to call them that - in any form (to be decided upon the inmate's date of execution or earlier if possible). Not only will this free up the prisons from the scum of the world, it will also stimulate the economy in said areas that this exists. Hundreds of thousands of [dollars] will be rushed through the economical system and cause stimulus away from recession.

That's just the jist of it, and I paraphrased. Anyone a fan?
