Does the name of Jacinto Convit sounds familiar to you?If not it won't be a surprise!
Jacinto Convit was a medic and scientist from Venezuela,more exactly from Caracas,who was mostly known for inventing the cure for leprocy.As a dedicated man to his work,for witch he found fascination ever sincer childhood,Convit spent years and years of research untill he managed to create the vaccine that saved millions of human lifes.
Besides the fact that he erradicated leprocy from the 21st century,he never charged a patient for the treatment and also Convit spent his 100th birthday still in the laboratory looking for the cure to cancer.
Jacinto died before finishing it,but his studies made huge improvements on how cancer is approached. Jacinto Convit was borne in 1913 and died in 2014.
For me he is a real hero and I'm always annoyd when I realizeze that more people know about mother Tereza(who just clustered a lot of dying people in one place,making their situation worse,just so they have a place to prey before death)instead of the man that actually did something useful for the humanity!
=Jacinto Convit RESPECT=

I wonder why Christians would use this man's invention to fight leprosy, since the bible gives a cure based on the sprinkling of bird blood (Leviticus 14:1-7)!
Voodoo. The priest shall order that two live clean birds and some cedar wood, scarlet yarn and hyssop be brought for the person to be cleansed. Then the priest shall order that one of the birds be killed over fresh water in a clay pot. He is then to take the live bird and dip it, together with the cedar wood, the scarlet yarn and the hyssop, into the blood of the bird that was killed over the fresh water. Seven times he shall sprinkle the one to be cleansed of the defiling disease, and then pronounce them clean. After that, he is to release the live bird in the open fields.
That is some pretty messed up shit...Where is PETA when you need them?

And if that's not bad enough, a similar procedure was used on houses and leather goods that got moldy! It's as though God doesn't know the difference between leprosy and mold! See my thread: "Bible Follies: God is Confused About Leprosy and Mold" (07/27/2016 00:53)
Because,of course,God inspired Jacinto to find this cure...It definetly wasn't the man's ambition,the long years of work or the continious research of the disease...obviously!
