The Catholic Church policy on condoms was blamed for the high rates of HIV in Africa and yet if you looked at the stats, the countries where protestantism was more predominant than Catholicism had higher rates and vice versa.

If someone is going to flout church teaching on sex outside marriage they are hardly going to be worried about flouting it by using a condom.
