For over a decade now, Ratzinger has been one of the primary defenders of priests who go to the poorest, most vulnerable people in the world and tell them condoms are the cause of AIDS. In the past year, I have sat in two Catholic churches thousands of miles apart and listened while a Catholic priest told illiterate people with no alternative sources of information that condoms come pre-infected with AIDS and are the reason people die of it.

As far as I'm concerned those priests should be in jail on attempted murder charges.

Or slander. And that's supposed to be forbidden by one of the Ten Commandments. :p

and people wonder why we (I) hate religion. Take a good hard look! Christ I've had someone try and defend their policy of NOT promoting condoms...."Oh it goes against their beliefs". So? People are dying, children are dying. Get over it!

The following was a great bit:
... there are two fundamentally different ways to understand the world. One is divine revelation, where a being contacts you from another realm and discloses some truth. (Another word for this is ‘hallucination’).
My emphasis.

Yet another reason to hate this evil lying bastard.

The BBC's Panorama program reports that over 20 years, the man formerly known as Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger enforced a secret 1962 document on how bishops should deal with allegations of child abuse.

It says the documents included a code of secrecy that was enforceable by excommunication.

In the christian faith, telling lies is ok, as long as you are telling lies for God.

African villages, some with only a catholic c**t as their source of 'information', are told that condoms come pre-infected with the AIDs virus.

The BBC documentary is quite an eye opener. :o
