How did AIDS/HIV derive?

I have heard so many akward rumors more or less how HIV/AIDS came about and would like to know the truth.
Answers:    The only way AIDS/HIV could've originated is contained by a LAB !
From what I heard it be brought over from Africa during slavery.
Well, virus are all the time subjects of more or less random gene modification, as when multiplying within a host cell. Mostly, the altered genes doesn't affect the viral capabilities to attach and infect "victims", other times, it might give to virus a disadvantage, maybe making it totally useless, and it will die out from withdrawal of multiplication. Sometimes on the other hand, the virus gains an advantage over its fellow virus by purchase some abilities, and thus might multiply faster. In such a way, we get tentative viral subfamilies (As the "different" flu each season), and new superfamilies, causing "new" diseases.
Btw, this has nothing to do beside labs and so on! What about the back plague, killing just about 50% of the European population in the 1300 century? Did they have have a shitload of microbiological labs at that time? Diseases evovle, be it viral, bacterial or fungal ones, only just like the rest of us, you just have to adopt it. And thank God for diseases like this, since it does protect us from overpopulation, which might have dire consequences.
