I have worked in Africa and it is very sad what the church does there.
They say condoms dont stop aids well obvioulsy not 100% but pretty close. I have heard of people saying condoms "contain aids", conspiracies that they are to kill black people etc.
Bush's gov after pressure from far right chritistian groups stopped funding charities involved in condom distribution or working with sex workers. In uganda which had been reducing aids through its ABC - "Abstain - Be faithfull - Condomise" scheme was pressured to drop the Condomise, and posters promoting condom use were taken down. Aids is now on increase again!!!
In general Aids is coming down among youngsters and sex workers, but married people cheating are the problem group.
