When he had sufficiently recovered, Lincoln went into "Deep Contemplation."He wanted to know how his macho Brother could have become Gay, and died from a "Gay-Disease?"

Lincoln read every piece of available literature he could find about HIV/AIDS.He came to believe that HIV/AIDS was "The Doorway To Ruin,"for African-Americans, Africans and all nonwhites in the world. "A Killer Virus Was Created," by"The Doctors Of Death," to perfect the genocidal removalof the world's nonwhite peoples.A Coalition of European and American scientists had created HIV/AIDS, andLincoln faced this fact after "Coming To Grips With The Truth."
