NCR Web columnist Phyllis Zagano did some radio work over the weekend, discussing Pope Benedict XVI and condoms with 1010 WINS in New York and the CBS program "Weekend Roundup."
In the Roundup, Zagano comes in near the end of Segment Two (about 15 minutes in) with a straight forward message: Catholic teaching is you cannot knowingly infect another person with a disease, so just as you wear a face mask in a flu epidemic, one must use a condom if necessary to protect the other person.
