Douala - Cardinal Christian Wiyghan Tumi of Cameroon said in an interview with Deutsche Presse-Agentur dpa Saturday that the use of condoms should be possible as protection against AIDS within marriage.
"If a partner in a marriage is infected with HIV, the use of condoms makes sense," Tumi said.
Condom use would only be possible within marriage as the Catholic church considers sex between unmarried couples as immoral.
"Possibly there can be a rethink there," said the 75-year-old cardinal, who is considered one of the most important government critics in Cameroon.
But the cardinal considered a move by the Vatican from its traditional line against the use of condoms unlikely.
