I think there was an African bishop who said (last year) something along the lines off: you can still get pregnant when using a condom. I.e. if a condom can't prevent a sperm cell getting through, then how is it going to stop the AIDS virus which is even smaller than a sperm cell. The suggestion was that if an intact condom has holes large enough to let a sperm cell through, then surely something as small as a virus would get through. My feeling was that the bishop could do with a couple of science lessons...
This is from memory though, and I know I should provide a link, as per my earlier post. However, it is getting late, and I'm off to bed. :nighty:
Edit: I see tetpoclaizitl has found it. Pardon me, but do you really expect people to get your name right
