I think the Vatican recently said something about condoms being OK as a safeguard for male prostitutes but were still a sin for other people. Anybody have details?

Just get a hold of the receptionist, they would know.

The Vatican has clarified controversial statements by Pope Benedict XVI on condom use to prevent AIDS in an effort to end speculation that he has relaxed the church ban on artificial birth control. But the Catholic Church also spoke out to head off a dispute among conservatives over what the pontiff really meant.

In the statement issued on Tuesday, the Vatican said that Benedict's comments in a book-length interview last month did not mark "a break with the doctrine concerning contraception," an interpretation that some media outlets made in the immediate aftermath of the publication of the book, called "Light of the World."

In the volume, compiled from a series of interviews conducted last July by a German journalist sympathetic to Benedict, the pope said that in some cases involving a likely transmission of AIDS, such as by a male prostitute, using a condom "can be a first step in the direction of a moralization, a first assumption of responsibility."

The comments were taken to mean that the pope was agreeing with the longstanding argument by Catholic ethicists and health care practitioners that condoms in some cases could be justified, perhaps as a "lesser evil," in cases where not using one would lead to the death of another person.

The remarks created a furor and a spate of interpretations from left and right. A Vatican spokesman later clarified that the pope meant what he said, and added that he was not restricting his example only to gay sex
:banghead: you asked for it.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Why people still even listen to papal edict, which so obviously only ever drags itself along reluctantly behind the times, and don't use their own judgement and make up their own minds based on broader knowledge and understanding and facts is the issue, I think.

Actually, I wonder how many really do heed the law of the infallible one :roll: these days?
