Chuckle, chortle...pardon me for not being up on my latin. I figured you'd parade out the 'usual suspects'.. "Galileo, Tyndale, witch burnings, etc. etc." Thought I'd get something new. This is all old stuff.

I think the fact of the matter is that what was once the greatness of Europe, society and the greatness of Christianity is because of the catholic church.

And, we're coming for you, BlackElk and I... thou heretic!!! LOL

And it remains true "stuff", but stay in denial, I suspect you're good at that.
