I'm pro-condom. Does that make me a CINO?

First, I'm not surprised, based on the tenor of your comments. Second, I don't know that you've called yourself Catholic, but I'll assume you do (a Baptist who was pro-condom would hardly qualify as a CINO!) Third, if your opposition to the Church's teaching on artificial contraception causes you to foam at the mouth, curse the Pope, and generally wish for the destruction of the Church of which you are a part as we know it, then yes you would be a CINO. Lots of people disagree with certain teachings of the Church, but most do so without that being a cause for hate, and the majority, including most active church-goers, remain open to a more full and complete understanding of Church teaching on those issues in recognition that perfect faith and understanding is limited by our sinfulness and human limitations.
