According to www.msn.com Pope Benedict XVI says that condoms are not the answer to fighting AIDS, after a trip to Africa. He thinks abstinence should do the trick!
What are you thinking?!?!?! If people actually read up on the issue of AIDS in Africa they would know that it is an epidemic that most of these people see as a curse, not as a virus. They do not understand that it is sexually transmitted, they think of it as being something that they receive from God, who is punishing them for their sins. The education is not there.
We need more people to teach them about the use of condoms to protect them and their families from this illness. Most of the time the women in this culture are raped, so for them, abstinence is not an option. The women, who end up being the primary caretakers of the children end up dying of the virus, leaving their many children behind to fend for themselves or die of starvation.
So yeah... lets tell them...just dont have sex, then you wont die. That will def work.
