For the rest of Tim Stine's psychotic diatribe, read his original post.
Rather than simply dismiss him, I'll actually answer one of his ignorant ravings. It's obvious that the man has absolutely no grasp of biology, if he thinks that HIV is a human creation. There is a monkey virus called SIV (Simian Immunodeficiency Virus), which infects monkeys in Africa. This virus is very similar to HIV, and it is reasonably assumed that a mutated form of SIV was passed from a monkey to a human in Africa, where HIV originated. No, not from sex with a monkey, but probably some other contact with monkey blood or blood products.
Why, of all places, would he post such 2-yr-old (no offense to 2-yr-olds) gibberish to this message board? The man is obviously only using the R-complex of his brain, if that. He lives in a comic-book reality.
