During his first official tour in Africa, the pope courts new controversy when declaring condoms aggravate AIDS problem. The Vatican says the Pope was merely expressing the Catholic Church's doctrine. Was he right?

Pope coments in africa.
I am not agree with the position of the catholic church and the Pope, and I am Catholic, but what is better?, that the people dieds of aids than use condoms, the Catholic church has to be more openminded and open the eyes to the reality , they will continue have sexual relations but if they don't use condoms it will be more dangerous the pandemia of the Aids in africa. also many babies has this ill cause the mother has it,
The Church and the Pope has to educate this poor people for use condoms.I think bishops, priest do it in his private life, all of us we know the kind of life must of them they have.
