Let me go one step further, however, and suggest that if given their way, the so-called right to life supporters would keep condoms out of the picture.
Well, you know what science has proven. Abstinence is 100% effective every time it's used.
Only in preventing pregnancy.
AIDS can be spread by other means, as we know.
The only real way to eradicate AIDS until they come up with a vaccine, is to use all possible prevention methods, including abstinence and condoms and education and better medical treatment, etc.
I fear that simply going with abstinence, as purifying as that may sound to some, is not going to work to eradicate AIDS in Africa.
