Pope: “condoms make the Aids problem worse”

Source: Times Online

A lot of Catholics have been complaining about Benedict 16’s utterly immoral statement, and, on one hand, one can’t fault them for it: it just shows that they still have some sense of morality, that they’re not mindless robots obeying “Dear Leader”.

On the other hand… do those Catholics (and Christians in general) know their own religion at all? Why are they surprised? Why aren’t them just nodding because, well, the Pope is Catholic and he’s just stated a Catholic / Christian position?

People, the basis of your religion is that this life is just a test! That one shouldn’t “love this world”. Earthly suffering is immaterial; the only thing that matters is whether you’re “saved” or not. If unspeakable suffering leads one to God / Jesus and therefore that person is saved, to a Christian that’s perfectly OK; in fact, one couldn’t ask for more.

If God exists as they think, and is absolutely against all forms of contraceptives / sex not for reproduction as they think, then better for someone to suffer horribly and die of Aids, with a chance of going to heaven, than to live a long, healthy, happy life and end up in hell with certainty. This is only logical, if one accepts their premises. Which, of course, I don’t, what with being an atheist and everything.

Christianity is a life-hating death cult.

    Well, I recently stumbled upon your blog, and I have to say that I am delighted. You showcase the exact intellectualism that I feel are both necessary and dying in modern culture.
    This statement baffles me. Not only is it painfully untrue, but just proves to me further that 90% of Modern Christianity doesn’t know what Christianity is supposed to be. To me, Religion (and faith in general) is meant as a mortal comfort; much like a hobby. Over time people seemed to weave their own beliefs into their Religion. “Abstinence” and the ridiculous way in which it is taught do not relate directly to the bible, but is instead a twisted interpretation.

    Why doesn’t the Catholic Church like protection? Because if Catholics stop having kids then the church will lose members.
