Pope = idiot

Just an excerpt of the pope's words. This is pertaining to AIDS prevention.

quote:
"You can't resolve it with the distribution of condoms," the pope told reporters aboard the Alitalia plane heading to Yaounde. "On the contrary, it increases the problem."

technically speaking, if you look at the two solutions that are proposed in the article (of which you only posted one); the 2nd one would help reduce the spreading of AIDS more.

Was that debated? The point was that he said that using condoms SPREADS AIDS.

In the fantasy land where everyone does what you recommend they do, sure. In the real world? Get lost.

Now, the pope being out of touch with reality is pretty much the bulk of his job description--but that doesn't make him any less of an idiot.

religion is stupid, most people are also very stupid.

Not too long ago, the Pope also warned that cell phones are bad for your soul:

I happen to agree with him on that.

Actually he's right. Condoms won't solve the problem so long as people keep listening to idiots who tell them not to wear them.

Of ocurse you are entittled to your opinion also.

People live people die.

It is what it is.

There is a difference between opinion and fact. If the pope said 1+1=3, and his people attempted to take that as fact, what would you do? Call them fucking stupid. Well that is exactly what he is doing. He said that 1 (the condom) + 1 (sex) equals 3 (HIV/AIDS) when infact it equals 2 (NOT getting AIDS/HIV).

I worship drugs and the Vag. I don't need invisible men who live in the clouds using scare tactics to make me conform and and be controlled.

lol yeah same.

The difference between fact and opinion is one can be proven, while an opinion may or may not be able to.

Are you fucking stupid? Once again, I'll use Ben's example:

It's my opinion that 1 + 1 = 3. In reality, that is incorrect. So then, how does my opinion equate to fact in that scenario?

Unless, of course, it breaks (though I'm almost certain that you knew that). I really, really hate to defend the Pope here, but perhaps he didn't word himself correctly. I can sort of see what he's saying; you can remain sexually inactive and not get HIV/AIDS (through sexual activity). Or, you can use a condom and become sexually active, thus increasing the risk of the condom breaking, individuals getting too "into the moment" and doing something stupid, thus increasing their chances, etc.

Then again, he could just be off his fucking rocker.

this thread reminds of that family guy "padre de la familia" i think where the pope goes "and like you said peter, i am the freakin pope!"

I understand the whole "don't have sex" mantra that they are preaching, but in the face of either sex with or without condoms, they still preach the same mantra. It is just whack.

This isn't it, but it's funny to hear it in Spanish.

Because they're against birth control. If any sort of sexual activity involves a form of birth control for any reason, they're going to be against it.
