What's evil about latex?

Sydney - Wearing T-shirts that read "Pope Go Homo" and "The pope is wrong, put a condom on!", a dozen demonstrators poked fun on Wednesday at a new Australian law meant to protect participants of next week's World Youth Day from being annoyed by opponents.

The new rules, which critics have panned as a form of censorship, give authorities the power to order anyone to stop behaviour that "causes annoyance or inconvenience" to the 250 000 pilgrims expected in Sydney for the Roman Catholic festival being held July 15-20.

Anyone who doesn't comply could face a fine of A$5 500.

The law will apply in dozens of areas of downtown Sydney - including the city's landmark opera house, train stations and city parks - that are designated venues for World Youth Day, which will culminate in a papal mass.

Police and the New South Wales state government say they are a necessary security measure. Libertarians and rights activists disagree.

"These annoyance laws are outrageous," said Rachel Evans, a spokesperson for the NoToPope Coalition that helped organise Wednesday's protest.

The coalition, made up of gay rights, student and atheist groups, is planning a July 19 march to protest what it calls the pope's homophobic and antiquated ideas. The group is also planning to distribute condoms to young pilgrims and speak with them about human rights issues.

But that doesn't make it inherently evil.

3. I want the power to stop anything that annoys or inconvienence to me

But I'm concerned about giving a cop that power.

5. I can think of no other substance that causes more male whining

in the heat of passion. However, unless you're allergic to it, it's not evil.

When did god give his most sanctimonious followers the right to go through life without being annoyed by sensible people?
