Unfortunately there are some people who would prefer to see people die rather than ever use condoms.

No, there are some people unwilling to tell them the LIE that condom use prevents AIDS.

Who is more compassionate: the Church, which tells the woman if she has marital relations with him on any regular basis, with or without a condom, she is going to get HIV and knows that to counsel ANY marital relations, WITH OR WITHOUT condom use, is condemning the woman to certain exposure?

Or you, who tells the woman to go ahead and get AIDS and die?

How do you know it's a lie?
This is something still being debated.

And in general condoms are STILL considered by the mainstream medical community to be effective protection against the transmittion of AIDS.

NOTHING in anything I've posted has ever told "the woman to go ahead and get AIDS and die". That's absurd.
(don't Catholics believe bearing false witness is a sin?)

Stop twisting what my message was.

I said it is BETTER for people to use condoms and prevent AIDS than to mindlessly spread it, in order to adhere to somebody's theological objection to condom use.
