This is coming from the same group that persecuted those that said the earth revolves around the sun.

True. They attacked science and lost. As creationists have done continually since Scopes.

For those that think all Bible-based religions are the same, for most non-Catholics, the proclamations coming from the Catholic heirarchy have no bearing on our beliefs. It is good when they agree with us, but, when they do not, it matters little to us.

True. Which is another example how creationism is just a mere disagreement within the Christian faith. It really should not involve science, as science is not faith based. But unfortunately some segment of Christians have chosen to attack science. They are failing, just as the Catholics failed against Galileo.

Please don't start that again.

"They attacked science and lost."

Did you forget that the earth-centered theory was started by Greek scientists before Christ formed the church? Earth-centered teaching was adopted by the Catholic church because its capital, Rome, had adopted much of the Greek culture.

I won't argue creationism with anyone, because I know I will not convince you I am right, until you stop seeking to gain ground by combining multiple arguements.

"as science is not faith based."

It amazes me how you can reject Creationism as faith-based, yet refuse to see how evolution is faith-based. For it, you have to take the opinion of a scientist on faith. You have to accept on faith his/her opinion that a pig tooth is cro-magnon man, and accept on faith that an entire jaw is built on that one tooth, and accept on faith that the skull structure required for that jaw which is required for the tooth is a certain way, and accept on faith that the spinal structure to support such a skull required for that jaw which is required for the tooth is a certain way, and finally accept by faith that a certain body structure is required to support the spinal structure needed to support a skull needed to support a jawbone needed to use a tooth which turned out to be a pig's tooth.

Sorry, evolution is just a faith based on the little old lady who swallowed a fly.

You remove the hypothesis of evolution from the origin of the universe and science is not affected in the least.
