Protection from...?

It's been a while...

Today I read this story. It's upset me because the Archbishop's comments about 'infected' condoms are completely unfounded. It states he was 'refusing to name the countries' that the infected condoms come from.

It strikes me that this man is using his position of influence to scare the population of his home country into abstaining from sex at younger ages and before marriage, which is what he believes to be the teaching of the religion he follows.

I believe that when the people of Mozambique hear this, they will be fearful of condom use, and will continue to have sex anyway, but unprotected, therefore worsening the HIV crisis.

Why must religion be used so badly?
