If you examine the statistics which the Population Research Institute and a few others have done over the years, you will find that wherever the UN goes in with its condoms, abortionists, and sex-ed, AIDS rates skyrocket.

Condoms are not even reliable at preventing pregancies, and they are far less reliable at preventing AIDS. At best they give a false sense security but are no more reliable than some African witch doctor at preventing the disease.

This is like throwing money at public education. The more money you throw in, the more you feed the greedy bureaucracy, the more vultures and buzzards you draw into the process, and the less you actually accomplish.

Here's an excellent factual article on "Family Values vs. Safe Sex" at PRI (Population Research Institute, not Public Radio International):

Since it's a long article, I quote one telling paragraph contrasting the numbers resulting from a Catholic abstinence campaign and a UN-sponsored "safe sex" campaign:

In Thailand and in the Philippines the first HIV/AIDS cases were reported in 1984; by 1987, Thailand had 112 cases, while the Philippines had more, with 135 cases. Today, in the year 2003, there are around 750,000 cases in Thailand, where the 100% Condom Use Program had relatively great success. On the other hand, there are only 1,935 cases in the Philippines31--and this, considering that the Philippines' population is around 30% greater than Thailand's! Relatively low rates of condom use by the people in general, and staunch opposition from the Church and a good number of government leaders against the condom program and sexual promiscuity, are well-known facts in the Philippines.
