But haven’t you yet realized mlizzy this is how the Catholic Church always changes course. Do you think that after persecuting Galileo for saying the earth is not the center of the universe they subsequently said sorry folks we were wrong.
Of course not - it would all depend on which Universe with enough wriggle room to shed their past false belief and yet not make the uneducated faithful´s heads explode.
As you point to this excerpt as proof of no change the Church could also point to the same except in a court of law to deny that they opposed condoms in all cases and therefore, as they said it was, a last resort. Where´s the prohibition?
A great defense to the charge that they are encouraging an African holocaust knowing full well that the more more educated Europeans would simply ignore such nonsense.
Now everyone in happy.
"There's no evidence at all that condoms have worked as a public health intervention intended to reduce HIV infections at the "level of population."
It would seem that your anti-Catholic underwear is showing.
If condoms were the panacea against AIDS why is it that north Africa which doesn’t have many condoms have an infection rate an order of magnitude less?
