NYC Condoms 'Degrade Societal Standards,' Says Bishop DiMarzio

On Valentine’s Day more than 150,000 condoms were distributed throughout the city. The condoms were branded “NYC CONDOM,” with the letters "NYC" in circles similar to those of the New York subway system. Since then, millions of free condoms have been distributed to the public, to the chagrin of Cardinal Edward M. Egan of New York and Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio of Brooklyn. These Church leaders said that city officials “encourage inappropriate sexual activity by blanketing our neighborhoods with condoms.” A visit to the NYC CONDOM web site shows just how much blanketing is going on.
