The Pope Speaks: Those Little Rubber Things

...that you wear over your cock may not be so bad, given that:

1) the sexual partners are heterosexual and married.

2) one has HIV.

From a report from the Pope's own theologian (although that may sound redundant):

Cardinal Georges Cottier signaled doubts within the papal household and argued that the Roman Catholic "theology of life" could be used to justify a lifting of the ban. "The virus is transmitted during a sexual act; so at the same time as [bringing] life there is also a risk of transmitting death," he said. "And that is where the commandment 'thou shalt not kill' is valid."

Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini, a former archbishop of Milan who was considered a candidate for the papacy, said earlier this year that a married person with HIV was "obliged" to protect his or her partner from the disease.

A tiny step, but one day Pope Benny will throw off that silly dress and stupid hat and party naked on the Streets of Vatican City.

    Not gonna happen. The MSM often projects its intentions on the goings on of the Vatican. The pope commissioning a study does not amount to a shift in Catholic doctrine. Neither does a quote from a theologian or cardinal.

    A hundred years ago, they said the Pope was going to have to change the Catholic doctrine on divorce. That hasn't happened, either.

    The Catholics have got it all messed up. I'd go with the Protestants on this one (but not the crazy Pentecostal ones).
