This is so similar to when Spain ruled over the Philippines. Their rules were set in place to be followed and not questioned. This is what the bishops want, people to follow without question. And when the point comes to condoms, its a concern for health and religion should not have an effect on that. I am sorry if people who read this are Catholic, which is likely, but I just do not think it is that big of a deal.

A woman’s body , a woman’s right to do with it as she pleases . No man , priest or otherwise owns her .

Someone once pointed out to me , that if you look at the picture taken when Jose Rizal was before the firing squad , the only Spanish government representatives present were the soldiers comprising the firing squad . All the rest ? Friars , priests and churchmen . It seems to me the church still considers The Philippines to be its colony . A question of , the more things change , the more things stay the same ?
