If Rome were to speak with that logic I would accept it, but they have not.So, you admit there's logic to the use of condoms in certain, very exceptional situations!
Thank you. That's what these bishops are saying.
Don't you think the purple in Rome ought to at least discuss this issue?

That is not at all what the bishops are saying or doing. If any of them encourage condom use they are responsible for that person's soul. God have mercy.
I would accept any infallible teaching from Rome. But, that is only if it came to pass. I am not saying theologians can't discuss such things among themselves. I am saying for Bishops to promote such things in the popular press and such does no good for the faithful. They are delicate, complex discussions that must take place within the confines of Church teaching. Not dissent.
