The amazingly cogent world of religion strikes once again with timeless wisdom, His Popiness said: 
“You can’t resolve it [the problem of AIDS] with the distribution of condoms.”
The Unctuous High Holy Pope of Vapidity then added:
“On the contrary, it increases the problem.”
It would seem to me, the lowly heathen that I am, that condom use is a good thing. It is a inexpensive way to curtail the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. The UNAIDS and the World Health Organization (obvious bastions of Satan) that said, “The male latex condom is the single, most efficient, available technology to reduce the sexual transmission of HIV [the virus that causes AIDS].”
Hmmm…. a religious edict, basking in the filthy crud of relgious dogmatism, is causing grevious harm to millions of people. Not particularly surprising, (given the religious track record) but disheartening all the same. The “god is love” bunch really have their work cut out for them in this instance.
Religion is a dangerous delusional pursuit; why people continue to propigate such an abberation, given all the evidence, boggles the mind.
The interesting things you find on the net. I’ve been reading the Sword of Truth series as of late. The further you get in the series it seems, the more preachy/inane it becomes. It seems Mr. Goodkind is a strong proponent of the
american style of Libertarianism (see also Objectivism), that for most intensive purposes is a bat-shite crazy in the woods notion of how the world should be run on self-interest and selfishness.
On the blog Randzapper was this gem of a quote refuting a objectivist named Flashman:
