Elephant In Exile

Although my family converted away from Catholicism many years ago, I still follow events in the largest of the Christian sects. Was actually rooting for the Honduran Cardinal to become Pope. But alas, we got the German. Anyway, plagued by HIV/AIDS, Honduran Church officials are defying the Vatican on condoms, and probably saving many lives as a result. The current Vatican leadership, as you may know, has been telling people in the developing world, that Condoms don't provide any protection against HIV/AIDS.
