Tradition Over Science, the Catholic Way

It seems like every time the world tries to take a step forward, the Catholic church wants us to take two steps back. During a recent trip to Africa, his 'Holiness' commented that condoms to do prevent AID/HIV but rather exacerbates the problem. This is, of course, contradictory to every study done on AIDS transmission and condom use increasing sexual promiscuity.
While studies ( not to mention logic) have shown that condom use prevents the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, even AIDS, Pope Benedict has decided that he and the church know better than anyone how to stop the rapid spread of the deadly virus through Africa, possibly offering this (satirical) resolution.

The RC church has a history of defying science, and consistently decries any method of birth control other than the 'rhythm method.' Since the world is no longer flat, not the center of the universe, I think that they need to just take a cue from more modern religions and keep their goddamn noses out of people's bedrooms.
It takes some massively sexually frustrated individuals to deny the right to adults to plan their family structure and enjoy intercourse and call such an activity a sin, and then sweep homosexual priests under the rug. The only reason that they are against homosexuality openly is because it denies them new members to crush under their oppressive boot and pinch for cash to keep the pope in funny hats. But hey, if you don't use a condom, there's no possibility of having children, so you can sure keep trying.
