Is this the place?
The title of this topic is "GOD Bless John Paul II" and I actually thought that it might be somewhere that people could leave condolences or little messages of sorrow at his death.
There are people on this board (well at least one) who are greatly saddened that he has died and it is totally insensitive to make your claims in this way. Could you maybe start another thread for the debate on the goodness or evilness of this man?
As for my opinion on the matter, I won't be posting it here because I have no intention of opening up my personal feelings to any accusations of defending evil or making derogatory comments before he is cold. Make of that what you will.

Re: Not here mick
Hi Schraf. Since you're interested in this you might be interested in the results of a little googling I did a while back.
While attempting to provide cast iron evidence of the culpability of Roman Catholic penpushers in the spread of HIV I came across their claim that using condoms increased the risk of contracting the virus. Disgusted, I followed various links to try to get to the bottom of this and discovered that, in certain circumstances, they were right. The following is from a WHO report
Although Nonoxynol-9 has been shown to increase the risk of HIV infection when used frequently by women at high risk of infection, it remains a contraceptive option for women at low risk.
This is one of the key findings of a report found at
404
A little more digging uncovered the fact that nonoxynol-9 damages the epithelial lining of the vagina and its thought that this increases the chances of the virus gaining entry. There is a study somewhere (which I can't find again at the moment, but I'll keep looking) that indicated that HIV transmission rates were higher when condoms contained N-9.
In no way am I saying that I find the Vatican line on the banning of condoms right, in fact I would say they were dead wrong, but I thought you might be interested in this little snippet.
Yes, Admin, it's off topic, but I gave up on that a while back
