yes, I am serious. I think the pope is equally full of shit in many regards, and while his intentions are not good here, is facts are correct. ABSTINENCE IS INDEED THE ONLY FAIL SAFE PREVENTION OF AN STD, PERIOD.
CONDOMS HAVE A MARGIN OF ERROR, in many places it is even printed on the packaging. SO NO, CONDOMS ARE NOT A FAIL SAFE PREVENTION TO THE SPREAD OF HIV.
so how was the pope wrong here? I am an honest rastaman, and while fyah bun the vatican and papal throne, I can accept when the man is saying something true.
Condoms are NOT FAIL SAFE, and they SHOULD NOT BE PROMOTED AS SUCH.
essentially, I think the middle ground here would be for the scientific community and HIV activists to say, YES, condoms are not perfect, but they are highly effective. Anything else would not be according to science, but rather opinion.
