Catholic Church no longer swears by truth of the Bible

So you use a Times hatchet job that reports on bishops warning against a literal reading of certain parts of the Bible in order to attack Catholics?

You and the Times both have your agenda, and it's apparently anti-Catholic.

[Mr. Lucky]

Finally, a lucid comment.

The Bible can, at one time, be the infallible Word of God, and still apply metaphors or parables as teaching devices.
