First, I want to say that I have no problem wearing a shirt with little anthropomorphic condoms on it because condoms are amazing. Second, the pope is a masticated tampon head and the Catholic church can shove their tongue way up my ass and wiggle it around while I masturbate.
Pope Ratzinger (former Hitler youth; no, not kidding) just a few months back insisted that the AIDS epidemic in Africa would not be ameliorated by condom use... in fact, he said that condom use would make it WORSE.
Just a few days ago a 9 year old Columbian girl who had been raped by her step-father, become pregnant and managed to get an abortion. The response of the Catholic church? To excommunicate everyone involved except the girl's step-father.
Does anyone else feel like we're in an episode of a 14th century mini-series?
Speaking of AIDS, the only successful policy in countries dealing with an AIDS problem has been the implementation of a 100% condom use policy (more on what this is in a second). Which brings me to: Cabbages and Condoms. On my recent visit to Bangkok, I visited C&C, a restaurant with fabulous condom decor, where they give you condoms instead of after-dinner mints and Santa Claus is made of rubbers!
In the late 1980s, Thailand was the first Southeast Asian country to admit that they had an AIDS problem. They started their 100% condom use plan in one province, among sex workers and sex work establishments. Then - with incredible success in lowering rates of STDs and AIDS - they moved it to the national level, providing millions of free condoms and conducting media campaigns. Studies found a tenfold reduction in STD incidence and a five fold reduction in HIV incidence among young Thai men between 1991 and 1993. You can read the full report here.
In conclusion, the pope is an asshole, the church expects us to fuck like it's 1949, and I think condoms are pretty effin hot (especially when they're used as decor and to prevent AIDS).

While I totally agree with your stance at AIDS and the catholic church, I must, for reasons of impartiality, say two things about your post:
1. Godwin's Law!
2. Although I am utterly convinced that the pope is "a masticated tampon head", I must reject the notion that he is close to Nazi ideas. He has repeatedly stated that denying the Holocaust is inacceptable. And the membership in Hitler Youth was compulsory at that time.
Just attack him for being the dickhead he is, not for some alleged political views.
Other than that, great post, great blog. You've won another regular reader (and sometimes commentor)
