You are trying to say that condom use argument was a Jewish argument, you then said Pekuach Nefesh, and I am saying that saving a life is a Jewish concept but not necessarily with condoms. I can not even say that if your spouse has HIV if you can use a condom, I plan on asking that today, but I do not think that is so clear and simple even. You want to come up with a case where it maybe ok in Jewish law, sure there is might potentially be a scenario hypothetically. I am saying it is not a Jewish argument.

pope's argument that it's permissible to use a condom to protect someone from HIV because it's directly saving lives is a very jewish argument.

No the Jewish concept is keep it in your pants then. You can not just say this is one Jewish concept without taking in to account the cumulative belief.
