This is not going to end well.


Not the editorial title you expect to see in a major American newspaper:

Condom Sense
Pope Benedict XVI is wrong.

I'm guessing no one at the WaPo wanted to deal with that whole "papal infallibility" issue. I mean, they apologized over Galileo, but I doubt they're going to do that over Durex.

And for no good reason whatsoever:



Yeah, I'm free associating again. Deal with it.

If I remember correctly, the Pope is only infallible in certain conditions. To quite wiki:

"Statements by a pope that exercise papal infallibility are referred to as solemn papal definitions or ex cathedra teachings. These should not be confused with teachings that are infallible because of a solemn definition by an ecumenical council, or with teachings that are infallible in virtue of being taught by the ordinary and universal magisterium."
