SIN MANAGEMENT IS BIG BUSINESS http://www.newswithviews.com/PaulProctor/proctor98.htm By Paul Proctor August 23, 2006 NewsWithViews.com I caught an interesting article last week from

LifeSiteNews.com that highlighted the frustrations of a disgruntled AIDS activist by the name of Martin Sempa, who was commenting on the absurdity of a recent international AIDS conference held in Toronto. As I read his rant I discovered some rather disturbing parallels between the AIDS movement and the church growth movement in how they both handle "disease." Here's just some of what he had to say: "The 'AIDS industry,' is a multi-billion dollar international enterprise now, and those who gather to enjoy lavish meals and hotels in Toronto this week, are more interested in 'managing the disease' than in curing it or stopping its spread, says Martin Sempa, a leading AIDS fighter from Uganda. 'Most of these guys don't care about stopping HIV/AIDS but just about managing the disease, keeping it going so they can continue to profit,' Sempa said. 'It's a multi-billion dollar industry,' he said. 'Pharmaceuticals, condoms, counsellors, distributors, advertising executives, grants for fake human rights groups and celebrity status. If you have AIDS you can be a star if you promote their agenda. It's become a disease of opportunity. If AIDS stopped today there would be millions of people who would stop getting an income.' 'I wouldn't waste my time.' Sempa said when asked why he had not attended the Conference. 'I didn't want to spend good money on fancy hotels and expensive meals to have no one

listen to me. In Bangkok {2004}, the president of Uganda was booed {for promoting his country's abstinence program}. It was a hostile social environment and not conducive to a free exchange of ideas. A single mention of abstinence makes them become rabid.' Our programs are under attack by human rights groups who claim that in trying to turn people away from sexual promiscuity, we are violating human rights. Human rights to them means condoms.'" "Our ideal is not the spirituality that withdraws from life but the conquest of life by the power of the spirit." - Aurobindo.
