The Pope has been quoted as saying, “You can’t resolve it [Aids] with the distribution of condoms,” the pope said. ”On the contrary, it increases the problem.”

He also said, “The only solution is two-fold,” he said. “The first is a humanisation of sexuality, a human, spiritual renewal which brings with it a friendship, especially for those who are suffering, a willingness to make personal sacrifices.”

What are your thoughts?  What, if any repercussions is this going to have on the African nations?  Do you think offering spiritual renewal is enough to keep them from having sex?  Do you think enough is being done in terms of missionary outreach, and justice?
