Do you have a cite for that? I couldn't find anything reliable clarifying the issue.

Just my old 'Sunday school' classes.

It's just generally not debated for same reason we don't debate whether Hitler should have killed the Jews 'humanely.'

It makes a difference though. If people interpret all condom use as being a sin, then there is a chance they will not use them in non-marital sex, so the policy (or possibly just the lack of clarity in the policy) may still lead to increased HIV infections.
