My favorite is the Pacific Garden Mission. Your donations are always welcome.
And maybe you haven't heard of the countless deaths from AIDS in Africa, because *somebody* told them condoms would kill them, leaving millions of orphans behind. Pro life my fucking ass.
This doesn't make much sense, Vic. You're saying they all got AIDS because they're following Church teaching. But Church teaching is that you shouldn't have sex at all except in a monogamous relationship with a life partner... it isn't that you should have sex with multiple people and just not wear a condom when you do it lol.
Saving sex for monogamous life long relationships would, in fact, help bring down AIDS if it was actually followed. So it's not that AIDS continued to spread because they were following Church teaching, it continued to spread because they weren't.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
