LOL, you concede the Uganda data and then claim (absent any supporting facts) that condoms are the reason.

You haven't presented

any evidence

for your claims that abstinence/fidelty education have been solely responsible for the decline. All you've really done is cherry-pick anecdotes that support your position. That's intellectually dishonest.

I'm pointing out that the decline has been widely attributed to a combination of abstinence and condom availability/use.

It's not controversial, or even disputed: you educate the people you can educate about abstinence and fidelity, and those who won't listen, you attempt to help via other means.

What motivates your obfuscation? Is it bigotry?

As a matter of fact, there, Arses, I'm Catholic. So, no.

Now, what motivates your dissembling?

If you're Catholic, I'll eat my hat.

Nominal doesn't count.

Who the hell are you to call others "asses"?

If you deny the Teaching Magisterium of the Church, you reject Catholicism. Just as there are some anti-Semotic Jews, there are anti-Catholic "Catholics" particularly in the obsessively materialistic and very poorly catechized liberal "Cathiolic" circles of the United States known as AmChurch.
