[King Prout]

A senior research scientist from Harvard says abstinence and faithfulness are more effective than condoms to stop the spread of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.

*R Lee Ermey impression*: "Well... no sh!t."

[Campion]

But it's funny, when the Vatican says this, some folks act like the Pope is personally going to Africa and killing people.

Then again, maybe if they're allowed to say that at Harvard now ... maybe soon they'll be telling the undergraduates at Harvard that they ought to abstain, or marry and be faithful ... or pigs could fly ...

>but that doesn't mean I wish death on those who don't. I find your opinion pretty disturbing.

Yes, some find imprecatory prayers disturbing. Right now we are hurtling down the slippery slope at break neck speed. Some other nations are going down faster than we are and some nations in respect to this issue are not.

It is very possible that God would give us over to those nations which can stem the tide (Islamic) or He could grant us repentance or worse. I prefer He would grant us the second option, but I am not sure our nation is willing to listen. Are you?
