(Vatican Radio) The Catholic Bishops in Kenya are taking a united stand against a
series of advertisements by the pro-abortion lobbying group Catholics for a Free Choice
promoting condom use in the country. The advertisements read “Good Catholics use
Condoms”, and have been seen on billboards across Kenya, as well as appearing in leading
newspapers in the country. The US-based “ Catholics for a Free Choice” has repeatedly
been condemned by the US Catholic Bishops as not being Catholic, and being an “arm
of the abortion lobby.” “Catholics for choice are not Catholics in the sense of
the one, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. We want those adverts pulled out,” said
Cardinal John Njue, the Archbishop of Nairobi, who serves as president of the Kenya
Episcopal Conference. The Cardinal accused the ads of “deliberately ridicul[ing]
the Catholic teaching on responsible sexual behavior across all ages.” The Bishops
have asked that the signs be removed by next week. Listen:
