I'm not sure what you are getting at. Can you please elaborate? Who is this
"nobody" that you are referring to? What connection are you assuming between
Bible-purchases and AIDS deaths? If I purchase a Bible (which I have in the
last year), am I therefore culpable for the deaths of people who have contracted
AIDS in non-risky-behavior by virtue of not giving said money to AIDS-related
charity? Am I therefore culpable because I purchase Lego? I bought a donut and
a barbecue sandwich for lunch yesterday. Last weekend I bought a denim jacket
and a pair of dress pants. Or is it only religious purchases that offend you?
Do you assume that because I'm religious I am pleased when people get AIDS?

I wouldn't call them "thrown out the window" by any means, but I would say that
we have to remain vigilant to make sure that they aren't.

...and we've also had the "fun" of being bombed, de facto, by a foreign
government.
