And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why atheists become Catholics and not Fundamentalist Protestants!

More accurately, this was one contributing factor to a particular atheist's decision to embrace Catholicism.

If this were her sole criterion, nothing would have prevented her from becoming a Methodist.

After all, nothing in Methodism authorizes an allegorical view of Genesis, but many Methodists still understand Genesis in this way.

Point taken, but the Methodist church is not a teaching church. The Catholic Church is, and unfortunately most of the teachers reject total Biblical inerrancy and accept evolution, and it is manifest in their authoritative pronouncments and writings (including books with the imprimature).
