This is truly disgusting and a stunning example of dogma trumping common sense. How can they not recognize the human suffering this position is going to cause, not just among their own congregations (which, incidentally, will be shrinking fast due to AIDS deaths if they follow the Vatican's advice) but among others in developing countries where AIDS education is struggling to take hold. This is so irresponsible. Is this perhaps their twisted version of population control in the third world?
