Sounds like the Cardinal is trying to organize a little rebellion against his former employers, does it not?

I don't understand, Alex. The guy who was replaced was a priest, not a Cardinal.

Now I see where I've gotten confused. Thanks for poking me further.

I had thought that only one of the parties were advocating evolution, and that the one advocating it was the one removed. I see now that both parties named, Fr. Coyne and Cardinal Schonborn, support the teaching of evolution within the Catholic church. The difference is that Schonborn advocates a theistic evolution, whereas Coyne (the one removed) advocated random evolution and asserted it was compatible with official doctrine. I don't know why, but because my article quoted the Cardinal, I had thought it was Cardinal Schonborn who was removed, not Fr. George Coyne.

Can somebody get me a new scorecard? Mine's all marked up!
