Creationists Vs. The Vatican

via Scotsman.com - Creationism dismissed as 'a kind of paganism' by Vatican's astronomer

"Religion needs science to keep it away from superstition and keep it close to reality, to protect it from creationism, which at the end of the day is a kind of paganism - it's turning God into a nature god. And science needs religion in order to have a conscience, to know that, just because something is possible, it may not be a good thing to do."


Who knew the Vatican had an official astronomer or a meteorite collection?
