Turns out there\u2019s another topic that leadeth unto damnation brewing\u00a0over at CAEI<\/a>. \u00a0Sigh. \u00a0It\u2019s beginning to look like there isn\u2019t much of a\u00a0chance\u00a0 unless you\u2019re a Comedy Central host, a non-terrorist Muslim, or hip atheist who likes Chesterton (and, of course, part of the Real Catholics Who Know). \u00a0Catholics (and we won\u2019t even get into Protestants, whose\u00a0positive\u00a0contributions to \u00a0the human story are dwindling \u00a0exponentially) who dare ask where science might be wrong about evolution, apparently are doing nothing less than flipping the middle finger to the Everlasting. \u00a0Funny how, so many years ago, it was shown on a certain blog just how broad was the tent that allowed for diverse opinions over a host of issues. \u00a0I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s gotten smaller, but it sure has changed the guest list as to who belongs.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am glad that you pointed out the very serious theological issue in which young-earth creationists and their ilk insinuate that the Creator is deceptive in the making of creation to appear old. It is also a separation of faith and reason, in that creation is not seen as intelligible, so we get into a whole can of worms about an arbitrary, fickle non-Logos God. Indeed, I think this is grave stuff, and should give us big reservations about a leader who endorses such a view.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Another topic that good Catholics can disagree about in good faith bites the dust. <\/p>\n
