CONSPIRACY THEORY: AIDS Is Man Made. True or False?

 Agatha Christie once famously said, "The simplest explanation is always the most likely." However, when something shocking or catastrophic happens in our lives, simple explanations just aren't satisfying. We crave deeper reason and meaning and when that isn't given to us, sometimes we create our own. This is how conspiracy theories are often born -- someone doesn't like the official account of a major event and challenges it with a different version. Conspiracy theories can attract a wide array of people, from vehement supporters to those who just like a good story. Whether they're somewhat believable or completely ridiculous, the most popular conspiracy theories got that way for a reason -- they're just plain fascinating.

In this article, I will be talking about the conspiracy theory that says Aids is a Man Made disease. Your opinions are most welcome, feel free to tell me what you think in the comments section.

Those in the scientific community generally believe HIV originated from a strain of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus found in western African monkeys. But when a group of 500 African Americans were surveyed in a 2005 study published in the Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, over half of them said that AIDS was created by the government. Conspiracy theories about why the government might have created the virus ranged from population control to the weakening of racial minority groups and gay people. Some also say that there's a cure for AIDS being back held by the government for similar reasons.

Let’s say AIDS was actually created by the government for reasons suggested in the previous paragraph, can we say that the purpose has been achieved or has the government created a plague that has threatened human life more than any other disease has in recorded history (excluding cancer of course). Ironically though, governments around the world have spent billions of tax-payers money to contain this evil they have allegedly created. There is no argument science and technology has advanced drastically over the years, and one truth is glaring, we have created more problems, deadly ones at that in our desperate attempt to ‘improve our living’. I won’t be shocked if this theory becomes a fact.

Has the government kept back the cure from the governed, a lot of people agree! Few weeks back there was this story about a University of Benin lecturer who had discovered a sure cure for aids. I verified the claim was true, but there hasn't been any chatter about it in international media which sure raises my curiosity as to what happened to our dear lecturer’s cure.

With the rate of corruption and dirty politics in our country and the world at large I totally agree the cure for aids and other pandemics have been kept from us by big corporations and even government, they are amassing wealth at the expense of the larger public and feed us with empty promises and propaganda. Whether the government created the disease, I can’t say for sure but here’s what I know: humans will drive this planet to destruction at the rate we’re going!
