The Vatican Has Spoken....


Now that the vatican has spoken, maybe all the crazies will finally shut the hell up. Yeah right, that won't happen the american taliban will now attack the vatican saying that they are not a real christian religion and that they don't support the teachings of jesus.

The vatican has come out and said that Intelligent Design does not belong in the science classroom, it belongs in a religion or cultural history class. I have no problem teaching ID but its not science and should be taught accordingly. How would all the churches like it if the state came in and said that evolution will have to be taught in every sunday school classroom, I don't think that would fly over too well. If concerned parents want their kids learning ID, then take them to sunday school don't bully the public schools into doing it for you.

Vatican's chief astronomer said Friday that "intelligent design" isn't science and doesn't belong in science classrooms, the latest high-ranking Roman Catholic official to enter the evolution debate in the United States.

The Rev. George Coyne, the Jesuit director of the Vatican Observatory, said placing intelligent design theory alongside that of evolution in school programs was "wrong" and was akin to mixing apples with oranges.

"Intelligent design isn't science even though it pretends to be," the ANSA news agency quoted Coyne as saying on the sidelines of a conference in Florence. "If you want to teach it in schools, intelligent design should be taught when religion or cultural history is taught, not science."
