If the fact that the Church is against condoms means people won't use them, why isn't the fact that the church is against fornication and pornography stopped them from doing that? Oh right. Convenience. You know, for all the responses I keep getting on posts like this, no one has answered my question.

That being said, you, sir, are a complete asshole. Asking a religious sect to change their belief structure about the use of contraceptives would be about the same as asking them to change their belief structures over the sacrament of communion. Common sense (and scientific experimentation) dictates that the host and wine do not undergo any change whatsoever after the priest blesses it. Yet (as I recall), the Roman Catholic church believes it does. Faith is faith. And demanding that a religious organization change their faith because of the whims of the secular world... well, that is just retarded.

Of course, this is coming from the same church that still refuses to formally apologize for not doing more during the killing of millions in WW2. So, no surprises here.
