Which is more likely to lead to a cure for aids in this life, belief in Jesus or scientific research?

Please, no Benny Hinn Jokes.

Even if prayer actually made a difference, there would be too many Christians like Jerry Falwell *wishing* that more gays would contract AIDS and die, so it would be a battle of wills on that point: the evangelical dolts against the compassionate people.

I wouldn't be surprised if Falwell types include a thank you in their nightly prayers for what they see as "divine retribution" against people they don't like.

Scientific research

SCIENCE!

Um, science.

If everyone would just believe in the FSM, all ills would be cured. Isn't it worth a try?

Praying for an end of Aids can help lead the researchers.

Living like Jesus wants us to would slow down the rate that it is spreading.

(I am not saying that AIDS is a punishment from God)

Peace!

scientific reasearch!! all you could do is pray and hope they find a solution to aids fast especially to help newborns that have no falt in this!!

Scientific research. Belief in Jesus can help those suffering from the affliction to get through it, but faith in Jesus keeping you well is like running in front of a bus because you assume Jesus will stop the bus. It doesn't work that way.

Both

Science

Well, duh. Scientific research. That doesn't mean you should not pursue Christ!

Look, if you want "wheat" you plant "wheat" -- if you want "corn" you plant "corn" and if you want "cows" you raise "cows" ... that's the rule of the farm!

I've never met a farmer yet who planted wheat, but corn came up instead!

You want scientific results? Study science. You want spiritual results? Study spirituality.

Why not study both?

*applauds*

Excellent, my friend......... excellent.

None of the above.

We should carelessly spread the virus, so that the next generation will be the offspring of those who had the genes for immunity to the virus.

That is the way to eradicate AIDS. Let the people who need a cure for it die off.

INTO THIS WORLD YOU CAME NAKED AND YOU'RE LEAVING THE SAME WAY. THE PLANET WE LIVE ON PROVIDED SCIENTISTS THE RAW MATERIALS AND THE STUFF TO STUDY IF YOU WILL, TO COME UP WITH CURES FOR A LOT OF THINGS, DESCENT LIVING THE WAY GOD PUTS IT YOU MIGHT NOT EVEN RUN INTO AIDS. OH AND BY THE WAY WHEN WE DIE THAT KNOWLEDGE STAYS HERE.
