As Kansas City’s HIV infection rate rivals Africa’s, some black ministers admit that silence equals death 

Donnie Robinson begins to speak. Fifty or so people are seated in the pews in front of him. More sit quietly in the back. Some of the kids have curled up to sleep in the pews beside their parents, reminding Robinson how he, too, dozed in pews when he was a teenager. Back then, though, he came to church only one or two months out of the year to hear the gospel music. He sat alone in the back. If he was lucky, he'd fall asleep at the end of his favorite hymn, the words I'm working on a building, it's a true foundation in his ears, and wake up just as the preacher was finishing his sermon. He didn't understand what the pastor was talking about anyway.

Now, at the church pulpit, he looks good, well-dressed, his dreadlocks pulled back. His angular face is handsome, save for the yellowing eyes. He's unnervingly lean, though, because his medications are eating away his fat cells. The drugs he takes are so toxic that doctors tell him he has the insides of a 60-year-old, though he's only 47.

"I was diagnosed with HIV 17 years ago," Robinson tells the congregation. "Today, with God's love, I am undetected" — meaning the number of viral particles in his bloodstream is so low that doctors don't see them in his tests.

Behind him are three preachers — two bald, another stocky with tightly cut black hair. The bald ones are Eric Williams and Richard Prim. The other is Wallace Hartsfield Jr. (son of the well-known Kansas City minister who retired earlier this year), who will deliver the main sermon. Tonight, the night before Valentine's Day, is the first event of the Taking It to the Pews Revival — a month of sermons at metro churches leading up to the first week in March and this year's Good Samaritan Project Black Church Week of Prayer for the Healing of AIDS. Tonight's gathering is being held at the Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church on East Linwood.

"When I told people I had HIV, a lot of people turned their backs on me," Robinson continues. "But that didn't matter, because with my Father's love I carried on, because He's always there. But I have my questions. I wonder which way I'm supposed to go next. And I wonder: Can I ever have a child? Someday, I believe I will. And I'm worried now, because in the last few days I haven't been feeling well."

Robinson will give this speech again before the month is out. His testimonial is always anonymous, billed on the church bulletin as simply "From a Brother With Love." He speaks much the same as the pastors do — eyes to the crowd, dramatic pauses, moments where he's overcome with the emotion of his own story. When he does pause to consider his direction, listeners shout, "Amen!" and "Tell your story, brother!"

Here are the points that remain unchanged in each of his talks: Robinson was diagnosed with HIV in 1991. He kept that information from everyone but his pastor for more than seven years because he was scared that friends and family would abandon him. When he finally did reveal it, some of those friends did leave him.

Behind the lectern, Prim is one of the people shouting "Amen." Not that long ago, he would have abandoned a man like Robinson.


Today, the 54-year-old Prim is senior pastor of the Kansas City Community Church, ministering to a membership of almost 600 people in a low, long building at 59th Street and Leavenworth Road in Kansas City, Kansas. When the church bought the property, under Prim's direction in 1998, it was a deserted bowling alley. Services are loud and joyful, though, with Prim serving in the boisterous tradition of Baptist ministers and pews full of people shouting responses to his calls.

THE CURE for HIV/AIDS.......AMBUSH

THE IDEA that AMBUSH cures AIDS
is being proven by the more than 400 individuals who have taken a dose of 60 ml three times daily for 21 days. The result is that AMBUSH 'KILLS' the virus by causing the protein envelope to rupture and the viral particles are discarded by the white blood cells. AMBUSH is able to 'KILL' the virus that are 'hiding' in the lymph system by its 'natural radioactive' properties. This process allows the body to 'return to normal health' with a corresponding immunity to that or those strains of the virus.

What is AMBUSH ?
AMBUSH is a radioactive isotope of uranium that is found in the 'palm' plant of which there are more than 3000 species. When ingested, AMBUSH causes the body temperature in the trunk area to rise to about 102 degrees when the individual is sleeping. The preparation takes four hours per batch, which is then given to the individuals for consumption 60 ml three times daily for 21 days. AMBUSH is a herbal preparation in this form but it contains an active ingredient which is a 'NEW' crystalline substance, a drug from the 'palm plant' similarly to ASPIRIN originating from the willow tree bark

RESULTS:
After 21 days on AMBUSH, ALL the individuals experienced a decrease in viral load to undetectable, an increase in cd4, increase in RBC, an improvement in general health such as more color to the face, decrease in Buffalo hump, an increase in gluteal muscles, a decrease to having no joint pains whereby individuals can bend to touch their toes, and walk up steps are but a few examples. There is also a dramatic increase in their sexual appetite beginning after the first week of therapy

DISCUSSION:
In any plant concoction such as percolated 'tea', there are 30-40,000 compounds, whi ch would take the scientific community twenty years to isolate one particular ingredient if they knew what they were looking for. The LORD GOD has given me seven steps to isolate the active ingredient, which is soft and metallic in nature and has a carbon- uranium-sulfur-(classified)-phentolamine configuration or structure. This is similar to Federick Kekule and the discovery of the benzene ring where he dreamt the structure.

As an antiviral and 'natural radioactivity' producing agent, AMBUSH is also effective against leukemia, lupus and HPV. Here I am saying that I have 'GIVEN' AMBUSH in the same 'strength' and dosage to patients with leukemia, lupus and HPV. A 35 year old male with HIV found it difficult to impossible to urinate was put on 'green tea' and water while the doctors contemplated prostrate surgery. One of the doctors gave him my number , I sent him a supply of AMBUSH an d he has not been given any more ARV's, since taking AMBUSH 18 months ago, is in 'good' health and has expressed a willingness to be examined by HIV investigators like many others who have taken AMBUSH.

I have sent this 'IDEA' to most HIV research agencies, scientist of the field, universities, hospitals, clinics, politicians and news agencies to which it is REJECTED because the name of THE LORD GOD is mentioned. He has steered me scientifically through the processes such as which plant and how to produce the active ingredient. What are the odds of a Florida Pharmacist picking a plant would contain the CURE for HIV/AIDS ?
I have never charged any of the people for their supply of AMBUSH but a life saving has been spent on the project with NO renumeration from any sources because AMBUSH falls outside the walls of modern medicine and research.

PROPOSAL:

My proposal is that I PROVE that AMBUSH CURES HIV/AIDS by giving it to a number of END-STAGE or DRUG-RESISTANT people and the scientific community watches their recovery. This proposal addresses the problem in that I have already outlaid the results to be obtained.

This IDEA is unconventional in that the scientific community has rejected AMBUSH because I say it is GOD given. Secondly if I wrote it according to certain standards, then it might be peer reviewed. However, THE LORD GOD has also shown me that there are five enzyme systems associated with the virus, reverse transcriptase, protease, fusion and two more of which causes the virus to be AIRBOURNE. This means that without DIVINE intervention mankind and ALL warm- blooded mammals will be extinct in a number of years.

The PROOF of what I am saying is found in scientific papers wherein it is found that when the protease cuts the viral strands, it cuts it at DIFFERENT lengths EVERY time, to which it should always be a valine at the end but is a different amino acid every time. This is why it is IMPOSSIBLE to produce a VACCINE.

Since this is NOT a hypothesis but there are about 400 individuals who have taken AMBUSH, here lies a vast area in which to check, recheck and confirm that AMBUSH CURES AIDS. Let it be mentioned that during the HIV reproductive cycle, reverse transcriptase converts viral RNA into DNA compatible to human genetic materials. Thus the human DNA has been 'hijacked' and since each person has a DIFFERENT DNA, then the new viral copy is unique to that person which shows that each individual has a DIFFERENT STRAIN of the virus. Consider two HIV positive people swapping viral strains and increasing its complexity with multiple partners.
It can also be proposed that they be revisited as proof that the strain or strains that they had were 'killed' at the time of taking AMBUSH considering that a person can catch as many different strains as there are people who are infected by HIV.
I am also willing to work with the scientific community in identifying those individuals who took AMBUSH and wish to be identified with this process notwithstanding that some are stigmatized while others are jubilant,

Once AMBUSH is verified as being able to accomplish that which is aforementioned then the next stage might be the natural and artificial synthesis of the substance.

Finally, if this is accepted or not, believed or not, THE LORD GOD always wins and this is the heavenly truth to which AMBUSH was divinely given to mankind for the CURE of HIV/AIDS and it will be here forever. Apostle Shada Mishe.

I'm a Baptist in a white church. Why haven't we heard of this? That's infuriating. When our fellow Baptist family members are gowing through this we should know about this. I intend to get involved and I intend to drag along my church fmaily. Thank you for this article; thank you for raising awareness.
