ToxicSlurpee posted:That's actually one of the sticking points both between the fundy Protestants and the Catholic Church. The current doctrine of Catholicism is basically that if science proved something than God made the universe that way and we can't be questioning that. 2 + 2 always equals 4. That's provable. God made the universe in such a way that 2 + 2 is always equal to 4. If science proves that the universe is billions of years old then God must have made it that way. This entire area is something that the Catholics are WAY out in front of. They're perfectly fine with evolution and the big bang, and they're one of the few sects that would be unfazed if tomorrow we discover radio signals from an alien civilization. Hell, there are even Jesuit monks doing very good science. My guess is that the Church remembers its lesson from the seventeenth century. They STILL have egg on their face over that whole Galileo affair.
