Protesters against Catholic policy. World Youth Day, 2008, Sydney Australia.
"Topics of protest included the attitude of the church to child abuse by Catholic priests and the church's policy of discouraging the use of condoms to prevent the spread of AIDS, which some say inevitably leads to deaths which otherwise could have been avoided. The placard on the right quotes Bishop Anthony Fisher, organiser of the event, who a few days earlier had accused victims of child abuse and their supporters of 'dwelling crankily on old wounds'. "
