This is not going to be the definitive statement on ID by the Vatican, nor is it going to be the last. There is actually a big argument within the Church hierarchy over this issue. The Archbishop of Vienna, a close colleague of Pope Benedict XVI, is a proponent of ID, and on the other side, the Vatican astronomer, is against it (he's a Jesuit). There was an article recently in the publication Inside the Vatican about the debate.

Well that's the problem with the Roman Branch of Christianity...it's too Pope based and not enough Christ based.

Excellent analysis. I believe you are quite correct. Does the fact that the paper published this article make it an official statement by the Vatican? It seems that is what some have inferred.
