Are Condoms Safe?

How safe are condoms? Are they really "safer sex?"


If AIDS is not the infectious epidemic we've been systematically programmed to fear, as more and more highly regarded experts in every field are saying, then condoms and the whole idea of preventing HIV infection by preventing contact with sperm have nothing to do with ending AIDS.

If AIDS is multifactorial disease, as careful scientific examination strongly supports, could the false sense of security condoms create lead to more behavior that is ultimately detrimental to the health of the individual? (More recreational sex and use of recreational drugs that goes hand-in-hand with recreational sex, as well as the documented toxicity of the latex and synthetic lubricants, and physical tissue damage from added friction and lessened sensitivity.)  We know now that the spermicide nonoxynol-9, that was falsely touted preventing HIV transmission, was a total disaster.  Sadly, some people knew for more than a decade while this horrid stuff was being pushed on to the risk groups.

Anyway, the good news is Rethinkers from all over the world got together recently in NYC and there was a sense of renewed purpose and hope for a real breakthrough very soon.
