I refer to the letter Nothing yet to debunk HIV testing .

This is my final contribution to the HIV argument, but I feel I do have to respond to the above letter.

Dear Thinesh Raj, you have an amazing ability to circumlocute so much so, I might be led to believe that you are not a medical student. You seem to be losing yourself in your own arguments. You say: 'I meant that HIV and Aids are not the same'. You've stolen my argument - I rather felt that was what I was trying to say to you!

Another quote: 'Science, or scientific study, does not deal in absolutes...' but you say in just the previous paragraph ' .... the basis of scientific knowledge is fact itself'.

I don't want to quote your whole letter, but it is a conglomeration of suggestions and beliefs, expressed as facts. Suggestions and beliefs are just that - they are not facts.

By your own lengthy diatribe, I think you have basically proven the case that doctors regurgitate the propaganda of the day.

And as for believing that Osama bin Laden and Al-Qaeda, from a cave in Afghanistan, overcame the might of the American air defenses on Sept 11, 2001 ... how old did you say you were? And you still believe in fairies?
