So how about the pope's recent comments that condoms could be used by male prostitutes in order to prevent the spread of AIDS. Is this ridiculous or what? I mean, naturally I agree that prostitutes…Continue

"i think their concern is insulating popes, not pipes."

"The more I think about their analogy the more ridiculous it gets.
Their analogy equates to gay men no longer being gay and just putting on condoms for the hell of it."

"criminals who pose as pipe insulators to break into homes may eventually give up burglary and go into pipe insulation. That's hilarious. And the phallic imagery involving insulating pipes.... priceless."

"Just listened on NPR to an explanation (read: redaction) from the Holy Sees own press that what the Pope actually meant was that condoms and their use are still immoral and inherently evil, but using them may be a step towards morality (read: no fun…"

"Heh, funny because the Church is rather homophobic....talk about yet another contradictory teaching....
The Church's stance on any form of birth control is fucking stupid. Of course, no matter how deleterious its policies are to its devotees,…"

Recovering from Religion
Unless you were raised by atheist parents, you probably had some recovering to do when you left religion. The purpose of RR is to provide a landing place for people when they jump from religion. With local support groups throughout the US, Canada, UK, and Australia, and real-time resources accessible to everyone, RR is where to turn when faith has lost its luster.See More

Pope's new stance on use of condoms
So how about the pope's recent comments that condoms could be used by male prostitutes in order to prevent the spread of AIDS. Is this ridiculous or what?

- About Me
- Raised Catholic, still recovering. Recently, my good friend, with whom I shared my beliefs (or lack thereof), and who helped me get through 4 years of Catholic highschool without going nuts, has "found God", which happened to coincide with him falling for a Lutheran girl. Since then, I've been hoping to find more like minded prople to talk to.

Dr. Terence Meaden said… - Hi Reina Bosque, and welcome to this friendly meeting place with freethinkers who recognise that religion is a grand deception aimed at controlling vulnerable superstitious people, including defenceless children; and you know
how tragic and inexcusable it is that women and minorities have been oppressed these last two thousand years and even longer.
