    Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly...

    It could be an opportunity for him to find the Lord.

    Rock Hudson got saved by listening to his housekeepers tapes of Norvel Hayes, before he died.

    Charlie Sheen, human, announced Tuesday that he did a very human thing — he caught a virus. That particular virus, human immunodeficiency virus or HIV, is living inside the bodies of an estimated 35 million people worldwide. In the United States, 1.2 million people are living with HIV and the U.S. fails to prevent about another 50,000 infections every year.

    As Sheen discloses his status, headlines will flood our Facebook feeds and Twitter timelines and many of them will be stigmatizing. This is no one's particular fault. HIV stigma is something we are taught. But as you encounter headlines and stories about Sheen, it's important to bring knowledge to them that will help you cut through the myths and get to the facts.

    1. This was not an "AIDS cover-up."

    HIV and AIDS are not the same thing. HIV is a virus and AIDS is a diagnosis that people who have very low T cell counts receive. Until Sheen discloses his T cell count — which he has no obligation to do — we cannot use the word AIDS in relation to his story.

    People very rarely "cover up" their HIV status to lie. HIV stigma — negative, unfounded ideas about HIV — keeps many people from testing, knowing their status and disclosing their status. In a world where people like Cicely Bolden are stabbed to death for disclosing, choosing not to disclose may be an act of self-preservation.

    2. HIV isn't the result of promiscuity.

    Bodily fluids — semen, pre-ejaculate, vaginal secretions, breastmilk and blood — carry HIV, yes. And it's through contact with these bodily fluids that HIV is transmitted and acquired. If bodily fluids do not contain HIV, there is no risk for HIV transmission. Many people who engage in condomless sex do so at no risk for HIV. In fact, our parents engaged in condomless sex to birth us.

    3. Sleeping with people living with HIV does not automatically put one at risk for HIV.

    HIV lives in bodily fluids. People with HIV who are on successful HIV treatment have a drastically reduced amount of HIV in their bodily fluids. This is called being undetectable.

    Currently, only 30% of HIV-positive Americans have an undetectable viral load. What stands in the way of being undetectable? Poverty, stigma, hunger and racism for a start. Being undetectable requires that people take either one or several pills every day. In the future, there may be options for people with adherence troubles, but there is no such current option.

    When a person has an undetectable viral load, their chance of transmitting HIV is drastically reduced. In one study, thousands of mixed-status couples who sometimes had sex without condoms never transmitted the virus because the HIV-positive partner had an undetectable viral load.

    4. HIV is not particularly "deadly" any more.

    In the context of the United States, there is no reason to label HIV as a deadly virus anymore. Those 1.2 million people living with HIV in the United States are living. Many of them are living long, successful lives. In fact, if a person living with HIV catches their virus early enough and begin treatment, they're expected to lead an average life span.

    Well, if he learns to believe and walk in God's promises... God will heal him of this.

    If he is taught that God doesn't heal anymore... he may get saved, but he'll most likely die before long.

    Sure getting saved is good, but why not go for ALL that Jesus purchased for us???
