Agreed.
If this is their way of trying to make people not have sex before marriage, I call intstant fail on this one.

It's pretty funny but the catholic church condemns condoms. Sorry if its too late for you but the pope said you will burn in hell if you use them. Also, you don't want to know what happens to you if you touch yourself at night..

aids is better than not aids. duh>
That really doesn't make any sense from a medical standpoint. First of all, you can't lace anything with AIDS - AIDS is the disease, HIV is the virus that transmits the disease. While you can certainly lace a condom with HIV, the virus is very weak and does not survive very long outside the body or blood. I'm disappointed in CNN for not researching this further. Anybody with any medical background can see this is false. The main way HIV spreads is through unprotected sex and IV drug abusers sharing needles.
The Catholic church thinks they're still powerful, not anymore, these aren't the Middle ages...NicktehImperial
your right, they're not as powerful as they once were but unfortunately they still have much influence on parts of the world, there are still many that actually believe the crap they are trying to push out..

I think the African cultural stance favoring sexual promiscuity and un-protected sex is the real culprit here.Darthmatt
Can you please back up this outragous claim?
I was about to post my opinion but I feel it would end in me being moderated and me regretting posting it.
So, he's just lying and trying to come up with an excuse to why everyone in the country has aids. He only has 'power' because he has a tiny bit of intelligence which goes a long way in that country. So all we need to do is do some test on the condoms to prove this guy wrong, who probably thinks there isn't such technology :lol:

Uganda was the real problem for HIV in africa. There truckers there went from town to town and would solicit prostitutes. This lead to a dramatic spread of the disease in that country. There are no villages with almost no adults as that population has been devastated by AIDS. Look it up on Newseek or TIME, they've done several stories on it in the past.
They disease has been propagated by the lack of proper protection - they do not have access to condoms or other means or safe sex - and also by lack of education. Many Ugandan men believed that if they "finished" then they couldn't get the disease.

He may not be lying. He may honestly believe this to be true -> people can often infer paranoid conclusions.

im a catholic..but i gotta say, most people i know have selective beliefs in the church. like we believe some things and some things we dont. but i think believing in something passed on to us is much much better than knocking on other people's doors at the most disturbing hours and shoving our religion intheir throats. - which is what most catholics dont do. :p

Well, only anecdotally. One of my former co-workers joined the Peace Corp and was sent to a rural township in South Africa. He wrote a lengthy email letter once a month. He went into depth about how the men can basically choose a woman they want have sex with because the male has a dominant role in rural society. Kind of like the man can tell the woman he wants her and she has very few options to refuse unless she is married. He also stated there was a social stigma against using condoms and lack of education about AIDS and STDs. If someone had AIDS they became a social outcast...etc. My comment was a generalization, but my friend seemed to indicate this problem was deeply rooted in the culture where he was stationed.I was about to post my opinion but I feel it would end in me being moderated and me regretting posting it.
So, he's just lying and trying to come up with an excuse to why everyone in the country has aids.

My thoughts exactly. Needs to blame his own country rather than others.
He's obviously lying.diablo_humanBetween condoms and unsafe sex you have a better chance of getting HIV without using the condom. Condoms were never 100% reliable, but close enough.
You can't give someone AIDS other than child birth. You must first give them avirus such as HIV which will destroy their immune system. Then Eventually they will develope a syndrome known as AIDS.
There is many other diseases and illnesses that lead to AIDS. But they don't call it AIDs because most people don't understand the difference between HIV & AIDS nor a disease & a syndrome. So since these people don't carry the HIV syndrome they don't classify their development as AIDS. They have another word for it which means their immune system was destroyed by another illness or virus. Plus theirdisease usually isn't viral nor contagious. So that's why AIDS is exclusive to HIV. It means HIV is the cause.

Condoms aren't reliable at all for the prevention of ANY std's. Might as well not use one, unless you are trying to not have babies.

There appear to be about 1.8 million sources on the subject.[QUOTE="MagnumPI"]Between condoms and unsafe sex you have a better chance of getting HIV without using the condom. Condoms were never 100% reliable, but close enough.[QUOTE="diablo_human"]He's obviously lying.OptimusLupus

Sure they are, just 99.999% of the time, the only reason the companies don't say 100% is because pregnancy or desies transmission does happen on rare ocasion.[QUOTE="MagnumPI"]Between condoms and unsafe sex you have a better chance of getting HIV without using the condom.

You are badly misinformed. There are some things categorized as STDs, such as crabs, that condoms don't help at all with, but for the most serious ones, such as syphillis and HIV, condoms are highly effective, particularly as contrasted against unprotected sex.
