Knox really needs to go. He is not only filled with anti-Catholic bias, he is also so wrong that I scarcely know where to begin. The Pope was absolutely correct with his statement that condoms do NOT prevent HIV. Many experts back him up. I have covered this topic extensively HERE.
Harry Knox, a member of President Barack Obama’s Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, has stood by his past comment that Pope Benedict XVI is “hurting people in the name of Jesus.”
Knox, a former licensed minister of the United Methodist Church and a leader with the homosexual activist group Human Rights Campaign (HRC), originally made his comments in March 2009 in response to Pope Benedict’s comments about the effectiveness of condoms in fighting AIDS in Africa.
“The Pope’s statement that condoms don't help control the spread of HIV, but rather condoms increase infection rates, is hurting people in the name of Jesus,” Knox had said in a HRC statement. “On a continent where millions of people are infected with HIV, it is morally reprehensible to spread such blatant falsehoods.”
CNSNews.com spoke with Knox at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday. Asked if he stood by his comments, he said “I do.”
Asked about Harvard AIDS prevention researcher Dr. Edward Green’s claim that the Pope was correct, Knox said Dr. Green was “simply incorrect.” Is Knox a doctor now? Many medical experts have backed up the Pope.

Two points:
1. Africa is one of the areas with the largest growing Roman Catholic populations and conversions.
2. Once again, Pres. Obama demonstrates as he did with the appointments of Diaz to the Vatican, Kmiec to Malta and Sotomayor to the Supreme Court that he stands in diametrical opposition to the Culture of Life & Western Christendom, Judeo Christian tenets, as the underlying pinnings of our world.
