AMSTERDAM—A Dutch sex shop gave away 2,000 "Pope condoms" earlier this month in an effort to take a dig at the Roman Catholic Church.
De Condoomfabriek (The Condom Factory) told press reporters it wanted to make a point about sexually transmitted diseases, unwanted pregnancies and the Vatican's opposition to contraceptives.
Last year, Pope Benedict XVI said that AIDS “cannot be overcome through the distribution of condoms, which even aggravates the problem.”
A French condom manufacturer created the unholy rubbers, which come in a white wrapper that shows the Pontiff raising his hands in the air, above the phrase “I Said No!”
