Default No Condoms in Geylang Please, we are Christians


The pontiff spoke against PAP's Geylang Condom Policy.

The PAP is very un-Christian and PAP Govt disallowed Christian Procession on street while they allowed Taoist Processions.



Condemn the PAP to HELL!

Condom disageement with Pope
PARIS - FRANCE, Germany and the UN agency charged with fighting Aids disagreed with the pope's comment about condoms, saying on Wednesday that they are a fundamental tool in preventing the spread of the HIV virus.

France 'expresses its very strong concern about the consequences of the statements by Benedict XVI,' French Foreign Ministry spokesman Eric Chevallier said.

France is a traditionally Catholic country but is relatively liberal on social issues such as birth control.

During his first visit to Africa as pope, Benedict said in Cameroon on Tuesday that the distribution of condoms could endanger public health and that they are not the solution to the fight against Aids. 'On the contrary, it increases the problem,' the pope said.

In Berlin, German Health Minister Ulla Schmidt and Development Minister Heidemarie Wieczorek-Zeul issued a joint declaration criticizing the pope's comments and underlining the importance of condom use in developing nations.

'Condoms save lives, in Europe as well as on other continents,' the ministers said.

'Modern assistance to the developing world today must make access to family planning available to the poorest of the poor - especially the use of condoms. Anything else would be irresponsible.'

In Geneva, the UN Aids fighting agency said that condoms are an important part of efforts against Aids.

It said prevention includes receiving information about the virus that causes Aids, being faithful to one partner and other measures. -- AP
