To: NYer
I had a biology professor last year who was telling the class that the Vatican had a secret prison underneath it, and that it was used during the Renaissance to punish scientists whose theories were against Church doctrine, such as with Galileo. Thank God there were a number of us in that class who put him in his place with that lie.

Professors in academia are always revising history, or only telling a part of it in order to advance their views. They make me so mad sometimes, that I don't know how I restrain myself from punching them out. Their hate for Christianity and conservatives is so profound, that they stuff it down our throats on a daily basis. I hope that Pope Benedict will bring the order that the Church needs, and bring us back to Orthodoxy.

I don't think that the perceived view of the Church condemning science will ever be able to be erased. Too bad.
