That's a baldfaced lie.

A condom is NOT your best protection against AIDS.


: If he doesn't have someone feeding him delusions like "you will burn in hell

: get laid without the condom.

And, with a 10% failure rate for condoms, what's he to do when one
breaks?


re: " Burn in hell?"
Just how ignorant are you?  The Catholic Church teaches that any
and all sins are forgiveable, if the confessor has true remorse.

And that includes murder.  You think it doesn't also include use of
a condom?  The Roman Catholic Church teaches that Mary Magdeline, a
prostitute, was forgiven by Jesus Christ himself, to serve as example
that no one is beyond redemption, no matter what they've done.

Oh, but I forgot ... you simply ignore RCC messages you don't like.


: the year when Census projects that the voting majority will have a Hispanic

Fat chance.  Did the Irish, Italians, Russians, Jews, and all the
other immigrants before them throw open the borders?


: You really aren't taking evrything into consideration, are you?

LOL!  That comment broke my irony meter.


: We'd have all of that if everyone followed the Wiccan Rede too, or the simple
: Golden rule for that matter, or even the first law of the doctor: "First, do
: no harm".

Or the Catholic Church's Golden Rule: "above all else, love thy
neighbor as thyself."

Oh, right, you're ignoring that, too.
