Here's the full transcript of what your previous news article quoted.
Now let's see some true analysis of what the Pope really said. Pick out phrases from his own words and critique them. Let me know exactly where you differ in philosophy, rather than short simple quips.

I could personally care less what the pope or any other religious figureheads says about AIDS. Unless his name is followed by, MD or some other designation that shows they've been to medical school, then their answers are as meaningful as me speaking to a group of pilots about aerodynamics simply because I like to look at airplanes.
Giving authoritative credence to religious leaders on any topic outside of quoting the bible is ridiculous and fodder for ridicule by rational thought. We are, after all, referring to the same group of nitwits who thought that the earth didn't start revolving around the sun until they decided it could.
I'd much prefer to leave the talk of how to combat a medical problem to doctors.
