Jesus Fucking Christ

The pope decries the use of condoms, and the next thing you know...

cc66/1238709492-pope_condom.jpg

The International Women’s Health Coalition says, "they’re selling like hot cakes in France as a means of protesting the Pope’s recent declarations against the effectiveness of condoms." The pope ought to use his reverse psychology more often. The pope says, "Binge drinking is great, fast food is lovely, tobacco is divine..."

That's funny and all, but that image isn't helping. Timing is important here people.

Still, I wish I thought of that.

These are awesome.

But, there is the danger that as you open one, the sight Ratzie's face staring up at you might cause you to lose your boner.

Advertising Slogan: Buy two in case of a second coming.

Does the position of Benny's hands indicate the size of the condom?

Holy shit, I want. It'll go great with my bottle opener (or "Popener" as my mother and I refer to it as).

@4 That's what makes these such an effective form of birth control!

i was in paris two weeks ago and these were everywhere. i thought it was a more novelty kind of thing though, because the ones i saw were in english, not french. hmm.

Everyone should swing by Costco and get a gross of condoms to give to their Catholic friends.

It's a nice gesture, and with the tough economy, it's also stimulating.

Maybe Catholics who disagree with the Pope will start putting condoms into the collection basket at mass.

@10 and @12 -- it should at least cut down the STD infection rates among altar boys

@10 - I am totally actually going to go to mass this Sunday just so I can do that.

Hmm, let's see. Gays are obsessed with orgies and bad fashion and inserting things into their asses and scaring the bejesus out of religious people. What is this movie telling me that I couldn't already learn by reading the emails from the American Family Association?

@6 and whoever...

Funny thing... I've always referred to bottle openers as "church keys"
My mom, a fairly devout christian, has always called the one bottle opener she has a "church key" I even looked it up on wikipedia and it's there.
I've always liked the term since it's so... ironical? But I never really though about where it came from.

But remember kids, don't flush your used Ratzingers down the toilet, it might cause a clog.

I thought it was an ad for a Subway sandwich.

Catholic Clergy can't wear condoms so they have been renamed "Vest Mints" They have a nice minty flavor and come in Ecclesastic White, Cardinal Red, Monk Brown and Bishop-prick purple!

The pope like his little boys bare back so of course he will denonounce rubbers.
