You can believe whatever you want to from the bible, you would have just as much luck believing that the fairy godmother will come turn a pumpkin into a coach for you.
AIDS isn't targeted to black men, its targeted to black women.

Without the promise of a blessing for good behavior and a smiting for bad behavior, what else can they do to control you? Harsh language? It's just a comfort thing so that when you are wronged, you don't feel so upset because somebody is going to do the dirty job for you. Think Little Red Riding Hood. The wolf wanted to eat her and there is a woodcutter who kills the wolf for her. We have a dead wolf and no blood on her hands. Good thing there was no PETA then.
Or that if you get killed in the service of your deity, you get 72 virgins. Personally, I'd trade them in for a few good sluts. If I have to spend eternity teaching 72 virgins how to have sex, I'd probably kill myself again.
I don't believe that the AIDS virus is targeted anywhere. It might be that black women get it more but I can gurantee you that the virus is not racist and sexist. It doesn't really car who it gets. It doesn't say "Oh, I'm in a white woman. Guess I'll go somewhere else." or "Sweeet!. I'm in a black woman. Party time.".
Too bad the Rev couldn't stick to what he knows and decides to meddle in things he probably has no clue about.
