and yet who refused to sanction the use of condoms to stop the spread of AIDS.

The Church only sanction sex between a man and women married to each other... not a very high AIDS risk group... so if someone is already going far outside Church sanction on there sex acts... why would that same person respect sanction the use of condoms

In for a penny in for a pound

The supposition of this person is that a man cannot control his sexual behavior, anymore than he can control his eating. Therefore we have to teach him how to use devises which will limit the harm he does to himself and others. Never mind that sex is more than the satisfaction of an appetite. The appetite exists for greater purposes, which include not only procreation but also as an expression of love. In Africa the sex drive is being abused, with maximum concern for sexual gratification and minimum concern for women. Do you think that a man who has sex with many women will be much concerned by what harm he does to her? If he is focused on himself, do you think he will botther to don a condum, an action which lessens his pleasure and is only a safeguard for her (unless she is a prostitute or someone else who will pass HIV onto him)?
