Darleen >> Mr Mbeki sees "him as a potential ally of insight and strength in renewed warfare to create a new, safer and fairer world."<< Presumably, just like he sees his friend and icon, Mugabe. >> Anglican Archbishop Desmond Tutu said he was sad that the new pope was unlikely to end the church's opposition to condoms. He said this was more important than the fact that the Pope was not African. "We would have hoped for someone more open to the more recent developments in the world, the whole question of the ministry of women and a more reasonable position with regards to condoms and HIV/Aids," Archbishop Tutu said.<< And if the Pope favoured condoms then the blacks would shout, "Genocide" and "Racism"! Just like they did when the apartheid government tried to encourage Africans to use them. Anyway, Africans don't use condoms, nor do they practice abstinence so, even if the Pope suggested they were used, he would be wasting his breath.
