The point that the Metropolitan Archbishop of Accra, Most Reverend Charles Palmer Buckle, is trying to make is that whoever is behind this so-called ?conspiracy theory? regarding the invention of the Ebola virus must be punished. The Archbishop is not disputing the fact of the existence of the virus, and thereby appearing to insinuate that it is a hoax, and dissuade people from taking every necessary health precautions against contracting the Ebola virus. And there appears to be valid questions for this virus for any clear-headed thinker regarding its origins. After all, why all of a sudden this virus, like HIV, rears its head–and always in Africa?
It may not necessarily have been ?invented? with the intention of wiping out members of the African race. But business, sometimes, is not played by the rules–without deception or fraud– in its zeal to make as much money as possible by creating hot and competitive products. Thus, the Ebola virus may be likened to probably what is already happening in the world of computers: create the virus and create its antivirus for business profit maximization purposes. The only difference is that the issue becomes much more critical when human lives are involved.
