the evils of heroin addiction by giving clean needles to addicts.

Well, giving clean needles to addicts will prevent the spread of AIDS and would be humane. But I suppose you would say that would be thwarting Gods will, eh?

Blowing their heads off with a 12-gauge would also stop the spread of AIDS. Doesn't make it moral.

You're arguing from a utilitarian point of view that eschews morality in favor of what helps the most people/hurts the least people.

If I was the one being asked the question, I would have said the right thing to do would be to help the heroin addict kick his addiction, and if he was sick with AIDS, give him access to food and medication so that he could be as healthy as possible for as long as possible. The funny thing is, you still would be preventing the spread of AIDS, without shoving someone further into the Hell of addiction.

Of course, this doesn't take into account that your solution in no way stops the spread of disease, since a person who is in the haze of addiction isn't necessarily the most aware or considerate person in the world. How many gays with AIDS do we read about who knowingly or neglectfully spread it to others?
