MOMBASA, July 02, 2012 (CISA)-100 people, including a number of university students, attended lecture on “Do Good Catholics Really Use Condoms?” at the Hall beside Holy Ghost Cathedral in Mombasa. The lecture was organized by the Archdiocese of Mombasa.
Fr Joe Babendreier, columnist in The Sunday Times and The Seed, ex Manhattan salesman, engineer and Strathmore School chaplain mesmerized his audience with tales of the parties he did attend in New York.
The bottom line is that chastity is possible.
There were representatives present from almost all of the parishes of Mombasa.
The audience fired questions to Fr Joe about how to handle customers in a Chemist shop who ask for contraceptives and also asked why people attack the Catholic Church on these issues. He replied by saying that the Church stands for truth and some people want to attack the truth.
The lecture was in response to the recent push from the so called “Catholic for a Choice” group in relation to use of condoms.
Fr Joe pointed out that the basic moral issue at stake was that premarital and extramarital sex are always evil, that no one can engage in such acts and consider himself “good”, “not a Catholic, not a Protestant, not a Muslim, not a Hindu and not even an atheist.”
Mr Dalmas Omondi, a lawyer, is “in favour of having more of these kind of lectures that inform us on topical issues and help us to know the teaching of the Church clearly, so as to witness to it in the Year of Faith”.
