I think arecel summed it up really, although he only needed to use one word. irresponsible

So that is his belief, fine. The thing about it is, he is responsable for millions of people who hang on his every word. It is irresponsible for him to say something like that. Where does he go next? say that it is OK to kill the Saracen's? He's is the leader of a huge religion. Gone are the days were the pope could do what ever he liked. It is his responsability to continue with the times. If he the catholic church can modernize and remove the payment of Privelages because one monk challenged them, then surely he can say. "Ok rubbers are fine" He only says crap like this because he think he will be encouraging sex out of wedlock.
