Vatican astronomer Guy J. Consolmagno, a Jesuit priest who has pioneered the field of gravitoelectrodynamics, recently described creationism as an unfounded superstition which undermines both legitimate science and theological understanding. Emphasis mine.
So a Vatican official is on record denying the divinity of scripture?

So a Vatican official is on record denying the divinity of scripture? Yes, hopefully (from the Catholic/Christian perspective), as asserting the "divinity of scripture" would be idolatry and heresy. However I don't see how anything Consolmagno said denies the divine inspiration of scripture.

So a Vatican official is on record denying the divinity of scripture? A church employee. And the Jesuits have been on Planet Zongo since about 1900, anyway. My daughter tells me they have dragons living in the jungles there ...
