Dogma tricks

Just when the angry juice ebbs away and I start to think "shucks, maybe organised religion might not be so bad... it gives people direction and some of the architechture is nice" I get a short sharp reminder of why I get so upset.

The head of the Catholic Church in Mozambique has told the BBC he believes some European-made condoms are infected with HIV deliberately.

Maputo Archbishop Francisco Chimoio claimed some anti-retroviral drugs were also infected "in order to finish quickly the African people".

An estimated that 16.2% of Mozambique's 19m inhabitants are HIV positive. 17.5% of Mozambicans are Catholic.

"Condoms are not sure because I know that there are two countries in Europe, they are making condoms with the virus on purpose," he alleged, refusing to name the countries.

"They want to finish with the African people. This is the programme. They want to colonise until up to now. If we are not careful we will finish in one century's time."

Chris - i don't want you to feel unloved.

I would go comment crazy if i wasn't comment fried.

If I can give one small bit of consolation? Your post on pro-life protesters has inspired me to be a volunteer escort for a local Planned Parenthood office.

So, thanks for that.

Don't sweat it fella.

And that sounds like a righteous thing you're doing.

I need to spend less time moaning about things on the interweb and more making those small differences. Kudos.

Duh. Everyone knows that HIV was created out of a biological warfare movement. It's like, UN history, and stuff.

So: Mozambique would RATHER have lots os people having unprotected sex than people having immoral sex with condoms.

I totally get it.
