It's highly unhumanitarian of him to disallow the use of condoms especially in places like Africa where they can be a lifesaver.

A bitter and twisted old man who resents the fact that he can never get his rocks off I reckon!

Here's a revolutionary idea: how about you don't have sex? How about you get to know your partner, and not exchange bodily fluids as casually as if you were shaking hands? How about you educate yourselves as much as the Pope is educated, and then make your little commentaries? Many popes have spoken about this very topic, and have written extensively on it. Read up. Check the facts. Look at the statistics involving the failure rates of condoms. Maybe you can actually learn something from the Popes. Do you really want to not get AIDS? Then try not having sex.

Yes, I hate condoms, and I hate it when people think that some flimsy piece of rubber saves lives, when in fact all it does is prevent life. Long live the Pope of Rome!

Well, The Pope does not say that condoms are an abomination. If you bothered to take the time to educate yourself on this you would know WHAT the Church says about condoms and the beauty of sexuality. You might be interested in reading Chrsitopher West's book "Theology of the Body" which expresses the fullness of the Church's teachings on sexuality.

1. Artificial forms of birth control (not just condoms but all forms)diminish and destroy the beauty of sexuality.
2. Condoms do not keep people from getting aids. Education keeps people from getting aids. Informing young girls in Africa that having sex with a virgin is NOT a cure for Aids would go a long way......Educating people that chasity is the ONLY way to prevent STD's and pregnancy is crucial.

Humane Vitae got it right when it said: the man, growing used to the employment of anti-conceptive practices, may finally lose respect for the woman and, no longer caring for her physical and psychological equilibrium, may come to the point of considering her as a mere instrument of selfish enjoyment, and no longer as his respected and beloved companion

Judeo-Christian tradition has taught for thousands of years:
1. Single people should be celibate.
2. Married people should be faithful to each other (adultery is wrong).
3. Married couples should welcome God's gift of children and, therefore, artificial birth control was against the will of God.

If the world is going to ignore teachings about chastity (1 & 2), then why is the world so upset about the teaching on artificial birth control (3)?

People who are already ignoring the more important teachings about chastity (1 and 2) should have no problem ignoring the less important teaching of artificial birth control (3).

It is within the Christian (and Catholic) teaching of the lesser of two evils for an infected spouse to use a condom to help protect the other spouse instead of infecting him or her with a deadly disease.

But condoms are not 100% effective (read the box) and the spouse may be infected and die anyway.

With love in Christ.

IF they really worked.

Actually, condoms aren't all that effective. There was a prize of $10,000 offered to the top executives of the condom manufacturers if they would agree to have sex with a known and tested/proven aids carrier, using a randomly selected sample of their product from a store (not one that they had inspected first.)

None of the executives ever took up the challenge. Maybe they know something about their products that we don't...?

But, hey, I supose that when ya just gotta have sex, you gotta have some psychological crutch to make yourself think that you're safe.

It's just like cigarettes! The customer dies, and the manufacturer keeps making money! THAT's an abomination to me, pal.

The pope is a fool. HE is an abomination. Condoms help protect people from disease and unwanted pregnancy. But then again, many of those in his charge are sexual abusers and don't seem to have any education on such matters.

Well, I don't hate them, but if someone is trusting in a latex condom for protection against AIDS, then they are deluded.

Latex condoms have a failure rate of 15% as a birth control device! Women can only get pregnant one or two days a month. If the failure rate is 15% for someone who can only get pregnant for such a short period of time, the failure rate for HIV can only be higher.

The sperm cell is considerably larger than the virus that causes AIDS. Therefore, for those using condoms to protect against AIDS, they are at higher risk of contracting the disease.

After all, a physician will not recommend a condom alone for birth control, because he knows the failure rate. So why do people think it will protect them against AIDS?

Here's some comments from physicians:

"You just can’t tell people it’s all right to do whatever you want as long as you wear a condom. It (AIDS) is just too dangerous a disease to say that."

Quote from: Dr. Harold Jaffee, chief of epidemiology, National Centers for Disease Control

"Saying that the use of condoms is ‘safe sex’ is in fact playing Russian roulette. A lot of people will die in this dangerous game."

Quote from: Dr. Teresa Crenshaw, member of the U.S. Presidential AIDS Commission and past president of the American Association of Sex Educators

Some folks think something is better than nothing, but I say, curb your sexual appetite. You're not a dog in heat. Use some self-control.

I'm not sure if he is an authority on condoms, as he's supposed to not have ever used one.
Remember, he just wants more people to have more Catholic babies to give more money to the Pope.

The gay lifestyle is an abomination to God. This means it’s disgusting an abhorrence, a feeling of repugnance or loathing.

Those who promote this lifestyle have a darkened heart and have become fools by their own perverted mind. Their acts are a disgrace of vile affections doing unseemly passions of infamy. Vain in their imaginations they are morally wicked. They defile themselves through the lusts of their own hearts. It’s indecency, dishonour, and unclean.

But they can’t reserve this life style or death style to themselves, they want to destroy others by promoting it. They want special rights and ungodly unions recognized as marriage.

Most people could be tolerant as long as this vile death style was not so public. But by promoting this abomination it is impossible to be tolerant, unless you are deceived. Because this would be tolerance of destroying of souls and destruction of our society. Being blinded into acceptance of this repugnant death style will cease God’s blessings.

Now everyone is a sinner and falls short. Christ has set us free from the bondage of sin. Upon repentance we are forgiven. Our sins can be blotted out no more to be remembered. That’s the whole purpose of this flesh life. To defeat Satan (death) legally and to offer salvation to whomsoever.
