Sanity from the Catholic Church

Sometimes, I'm ashamed, and other times...I'm impressed. I couldn't agree more. Emphasis mine.

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."

Now I remember why I hear bright people honor their Jesuit teachers, years after they have left their student roles. Thanks for the post, it helped my hopefulness.
