<All true DAK. I gave you one, look up the rest yourself!I do not make stuff up or lie!! And the gay quote was only a few weeks ago.>
Dude, you see the religious world through darkly coloured glasses... I'm asking you exactly what the quotes were, because you DO MAKE UP all sorts of things based your bias... we all do actually, but on religion, you make up some whoppers. So if you can't show me those John Paul II quotes I'll assume it's all bull. Why? Simply look below, what your are saying is pure bull:
<I do not think you are really interested in the truth anyway.>
Me?? I'm not the one equating todays Muslim fundamentalist actions to todays Catholics and/or the Catholic Church!!!!
<DAK there are 5,000 religions out there and not one, not one piece of evidence to support any of them!!>
Dude,
1.) That's not the point, nor was it ever.
2.) That statement simply shows YOUR prejudice on the point at hand.
3.) There are all sorts of scientists who believe there is probably a god, including some of the most famous and accomplished.
<We evolved from other primates. The fossil record is pretty clear!!>
Brings us full circle to the point at hand, "religious fundamentalism":
In todays world, the religions I pointed out, including the official dogma of the Catholic Church don't have a problem with evolution or the scientific evolutionary record... and actually think those that take the bible literally are idiots, just like you and me... IN FACT, unlike you, I'll include a recent headlines on the topic:
<The Daily Dose: Vatican sides with Darwin
There is no more confusion swirling around the Vatican over its stance on ID. Darwin has won out, and scientists are breathing a collective sigh of relief
By Matt Donnelly
(November 7, 2005)
A Vatican cardinal said yesterday that the faithful should listen to what secular modern science has to offer, and warned that religion risks turning into 'fundamentalism" if it ignores scientific reason.>
< 1996 statement by Pope John Paul II that evolution was "more than just a hypothesis.'>
On "intelligent design":
<Vatican Astronomer: Intelligent Design Not Science
Monday, November 21, 2005
VATICAN CITY — The Vatican's chief astronomer said Friday that "intelligent design" isn't science and doesn't belong in science classrooms>
So guy... why don't you do some reading or religious studies to gain some context in this obviously devoid portion of your intellect.
