ROME — A Rome high school has decided to install vending machines selling condoms for its students, sparking angry reaction from the Catholic Church which claims the move will only encourage youths to have sex.
Cardinal Agostino Vallini, the pope's vicar for Rome, criticized the decision as trivializing sex.
L'Avvenire, the newspaper of the Italian Bishops' Conference, said Thursday that sex was being reduced to "mere physical exercise." The paper lamented that young people these days have no spiritual guidance when it comes to sexuality, and that educators are more concerned with "the health and hygiene consequences of sex" than the moral implications.
