EU Slams Vatican
The above wasn't the headline used, but I thought it was fair play since every time the Vatican or the Pope makes a statement it seems they are slamming or attacking someone.
Mr Nielsen, EU Commissioner for Development and Humanitarian Aid, said: "This is where bigotry gets into the big discussion."
He condemned the Vatican's "lack of love for human beings" and "unwillingness to take their situation seriously".
Mr Nielsen said it forced people into "a terrible choice of abstinence or lose the blessing of the Church".
The Vatican refused to be interviewed for the programme.
But Bishop Rafael Llano Cifuentes, Auxiliary Bishop of Rio de Janeiro, told the programme "people are being deceived" by the message that condoms can prevent HIV infection.
He said: "The Church is a mother. What mother would allow her son to go on a plane if she knew there was a 15% chance it would crash?"

Mr. Nielsen said it forced people into "a terrible choice of abstinence or lose the blessing of the Church".
There you have it in a nutshell. Abstinence is a nerve-wracking deprivation which it's cruel of the Church to press upon people. Once he's said that, you can see that he's a member in good standing of the Church of Self-Indulgence. I would't be surprised to find that this same person abstains from fatty foods, cigarette smoke, and alcohol, but to expect people to abstain from nooky is unthinkable.
