Pope Condones Condoms

Under certain narrowly defined circumstances, the details of which I have no interest in.

Way back when, following the introduction of the birth control pill the Pope opined that it would be forbidden under some strict reading of the official Vatican party line. A woman of Italian extraction was interviewed, on the streets of New York about this, and was quoted as saying "He's-a no play-a da game, he's-a no make-a da rules!"

I could have the details wrong, but I remember the line quite clearly.
