“Vatican-backed Rome conference on evolution snubs intelligent-design and creationist groups”
Probably for good reason.
Thanks for the Freepmail!!
And yes, the first step is admitting you have a problem.

On the other hand, there is a high school that will sell you this:
You could wear it as a lab apron!
Anyway, it's nice if the wider Catholic community is returning to its roots. There is no evidence of opposition to the biblical creation position on a young earth prior to the last few hundred years within Christendom. It's time for the Darwinian/uniformitarian fiasco to fade into history.
Contradiction in terms.
Don’t forget to drive up to San Gimignano just outside of Poggibonsi and see the Medieval Museum of Torture.
In Europe, freedom of thought is more prevalent than in the continent of North America.
It would be a good excuse to visit Rome.
Dawkins claims about the Catholic Church being the biggest threat to the sickly theory of evolution were prescient.
I’m sure you’ll be presenting a paper. Be sure to post the abstract here.

Of course, if Berthault were correct, he would be the greatest geologist of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries as he would have revolutionised the field more or less single-handedly (his collaborator on ref 3, Pierre Julien, who is a professional and well-regarded sedimentologist with a very extensive publication record and many awards, does not appear to endorse the radical and umwarranted conclusions Berthault has drawn from the work). In contrast, professional geologists have ignored Berthault since his 1993 paper, and this is not surprising, since his more recent publications in obscure journals are little more than thinly disguised and poorly argued pieces of creationist propaganda unencumbered by new findings.
