Pope Supports Condom Use... FINALLY!!!!!

Pope Benedict XVI has opened the door on the previously taboo subject of condoms as a way to fight HIV, saying male prostitutes who use condoms may be beginning to act responsibly. It's a stunning comment for a pontiff who has blamed condoms for making the AIDS crisis worse.

The pope made the comments in an interview with a German journalist published as a book entitled "Light of the World: The Pope, the Church and the Signs of the Times," which is being released Tuesday. The Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano ran excerpts on Saturday.

Church teaching has long opposed condoms because they are a form of artificial contraception, although the Vatican has never released an explicit policy about condoms and HIV. The Vatican has been harshly criticized for its position.



This guy and his organization are the worst sexual offenders on earth. In addition thier rediculous attitude towards birth control is causing over population in third world countries. Look at the catholic Philippines, their popluation has increased over 30 MILLION people since 1990. This irresponsible leader of so many people should be ashamed of what he is convincing the catholics to believe. Maybe this shame is finally resulting in the realization of the negative effects of church policy!
