(sorry, I don't have an English language news item, yet. You can try your luck with Babelfish)

Short translation of what he said on his way to Africa:

"You can not solve the AIDS problem by distributing condoms. Using condoms only aggravates the problem."
"The solution comes with human and spiritual awakening, and with friendship for the suffering."

Here's the BBC link for anyone who doesn't read German. (One day soon, one day soon I will get the hang of the language.)

Skulker:
Rebecca's Twitter on this:

rebeccawatson: Pope sez, "Free condoms make the AIDS epidemic worse and why yes! I am a f'ing piece of shit."

Censored because this is not an Explicit thread but you know what she really said  ;)

Who says that religion does no real harm?

Karyn:
It sickens me that millions op people think this asshat is the mouthpiece of God.
