Condoms don't work

Guardian Unlimited | Special reports | Vatican: condoms don't stop Aids

The Catholic Church is telling people in countries stricken by Aids not to use condoms because they have tiny holes in them through which the HIV virus can pass - potentially exposing thousands of people to risk.

I don't even know where to start. Reading things like this makes me sad I was ever baptised and glad I never got confirmed.

The amazing thing is, they don't seem to be telling people to abstain, just not to use condoms. I'm livid, I don't know what to say...

you beat me to it! Read the story earlier. My favorite part was the nun who told the HIV+ guy not to use condoms with his wife because they wouldn't help. A close second was the guy who claimed that condoms themselves were laced with HIV.

What are you gonna do? After all, if a sperm is wasted god gets quite irate.

sorry to sound callous, but if i don't laugh about it, i'll cry instead.
