SPANISH BISHOPS APPROVE CONDOM USE
Associated Press reports:
MADRID, Spain - In a substantial shift from traditional policy, the Catholic Church in Spain has said it supports the use of condoms to prevent the spread of AIDS.
“Condoms have a place in the global prevention of AIDS,” Juan Antonio Martinez Campos, spokesman for the Spanish Bishops Conference, told reporters after a meeting Tuesday with Health Minister Elena Salgado to discuss ways of fighting the disease.
UPDATE
Apparently there has been a misinterpretation. Again.
Robert Duncan is attempting to sort this out from his vantage point over there.
The topic is also up for discussion at Amy's blog as well.
