Pope says condom use in Africa will increase prevalance of AIDs

Pope BenedictThe eedgit hadn’t even arrived in Cameroon when he came up with this beauty:

You can’t resolve (AIDS) with the distribution of condoms… On the contrary, it increases the problem.

Of course the potty old fart is completely missing the point. From the WHO page on Cameroon:

Life expectancy at birth m/f (years): 50/52

Healthy life expectancy at birth m/f (years, 2003): 41/42

I met a guy last year who spent an enlightening 6 months in Cameroon. Over a few beers the topic of women, sexuality and AIDS  came up. His point:

If you expect to die in your 40’s – why would you use a condom?! Hunger is the problem for these people, not AIDS.

There you go Benny, problem solved (as long as life expectancy remains at those pitiful levels.)

    Unbelievably naiive.

    Nice one William – but for an “website marketing consultant” I would have expected more… Do I get additional marks for noticing the (deliberate?) typo in your comment?!

    By the way, you might want to check your home page – for a “website marketing consultant” I would have thought that you’d make a little more effort to make sure your page validates – 71 errors and 4 warnings…? tut, tut Bill:
    See what W3C validator does with your page…

    Now a professional stand up dude like yourself Bill wouldn’t leave a shitty little comment here just to have a link back to your website would you…?

    Tell you what – see if you can do better than two words and we’ll leave the link there – otherwise go ask me bollix!

    Thanks for the feedback my comment was short because I was on the way out. However what I am trying to say here is that the religious bodies need to move their views a bit with the times. It’s about staying relevant and growing during tough times when people need them more than ever. Hope this expresses my views much better. Feel free to remove the other comment, thank you for the feedback on my site. I spend little time working on it due to other commitments but will work on what you noticed, thank you.

    What a pile of unadulterated shite. It is precisely religion and superstitious supernaturalistic ‘thinking’ which has led the bishop of rome (fuck calling him the ‘pope’) to come up with yet more anti-human, life-threatening detritus gleaned from his filthy bible. It is not more fucking faith we need, and presented as you suggest in delightfully re-ribonned packages to keep the needy flocks happy; it is LESS fucking faith. Have you thought about becoming an eager catamite of Tony Blair? You’ll get on well. He and his ‘Faith Foundation’ doesn’t get the point that trying to solve the world’s problems by increasing the amount of faith in it is like trying to douse a fire with fucking petrol.

    The Catholic Cult and its head honcho share their part with every other religion on the planet in their proven success at fucking it all up for the rest of us. Even the gentle ‘Jains’ can’t get themselves off the hook, superstitious, supernaturalistic, evidence-hating cunts that they are.

    Think on, IMC.
