Pope John Paul II has been actively promoting disease and death in the millions and he's up for a Nobel Peace Prize?
South Africa's death rate jumped 57 percent from 1997 to 2002
Statistics South Africa (Stats SA) shows reported deaths popped up to 499,268 in 2002 from 318,287 in 1997.
And folks - its worse now - not better!
the country's AIDS epidemic is wrecking havoc on the working-age population.
President Thabo Mbeki's government is in bed with our idoit president on how to deal with the problem:
Abstenence! Wonder of wonders - its not working - never has , never will! Not one study that teaching it works anywhere ever - yet this idots government teaches Abstenence to its marauding military and also all the Catholic associations with condom use - that it is unmanly, immoral, sperm is more important than human misery and death. (Then again - whats always been the best way to gain converts? Misery, death, utter fear and terror.)
Pope John Paul is up for a Nobel Peace Prize - over 30 years of actively promoting the spread of disease and death and up for awards!

The Catholic Church is telling people in countries stricken by Aids not to use condoms because they have tiny holes in them through which HIV can pass - potentially exposing thousands of people to risk.
The church is making the claims across four continents despite a widespread scientific consensus that condoms are impermeable to HIV.
The WHO has condemned the Vatican's views, saying: "These incorrect statements about condoms and HIV are dangerous when we are facing a global pandemic which has already killed more than 20 million people, and currently affects at least 42 million."
The organisation says "consistent and correct" condom use reduces the risk of HIV infection by 90%. There may be breakage or slippage of condoms - but not, the WHO says, holes through which the virus can pass .
Scientific research by a group including the US National Institutes of Health and the WHO found "intact condoms... are essentially impermeable to particles the size of STD pathogens including the smallest sexually transmitted virus... condoms provide a highly effective barrier to transmission of particles of similar size to those of the smallest STD viruses".
The Vatican's Cardinal Trujillo said: "They are wrong about that... this is an easily recognisable fact."
The church opposes any kind of contraception because it claims it breaks the link between sex and procreation - a position Pope John Paul II has fought to defend. (tried to defrock Mother Teresa for handing out condoms, of course now he's trying to make money on her)
In Kenya - where an estimated 20% of people have HIV - the church condemns condoms for promoting promiscuity and repeats the claim about permeability. The archbishop of Nairobi, Raphael Ndingi Nzeki, said: "Aids... has grown so fast because of the availability of condoms."
A Catholic nun (is shown in his special) advising her HIV-infected choirmaster against using condoms with his wife because "the virus can pass through".
In Lwak, near Lake Victoria, the director of an Aids testing centre says he cannot distribute condoms because of church opposition. Gordon Wambi told the programme: "Some priests have even been saying that condoms are laced with HIV/Aids."
Panorama found the claims about permeable condoms repeated by Catholics as far apart as Asia and Latin America.

On a positive note:
At least John Paul II has acted quickly and decisively in protecting the perverted molesters in his church.
