Since letting the clergy educate us on matters of science and health has historically gone so well:It cannot be overcome by the distribution of condoms. On the contrary, they increase the problem.

They INCREASE the problem? Has that post-hole digger hat cut off the circulation to his head? And how dare this celibate white man stand in front of an audience in Sub-Saharan Africa, where 25 million souls have been lost to that disease, and presume to sell them this tinsel? Obviously he's full of shit. Obviously his church's position is wrong and will be reversed, like so many of their other "inspired" doctrines. Obviously he's not going to win any converts with that kind of talk. Obviously he never should have gone there in the first place.
what. the. fuck.,
