WISCONSIN--Retired Pope Benedict was a strident opponent of the use of condoms in the fight against AIDS in Africa, and in 2009 he said "the problem cannot be overcome by the distribution of prophylactics: on the contrary, they increase it." In response, Niki Johnson, an artist in Milwaukee, Wisconsin created a unique portrait, "Eggs Benedict" (Video) of the pope using 17,000 non-lubricated condoms. During his retirement years (beginning Feb. 2013), he is known as His Holiness Benedict XVI, Pope emeritus.
