I love the Catholic Church.
Talking with a friend of mine about private, religious colleges. He mentioned that getting certain degrees from religious colleges are worthless, and his example was a science degree from a particular fundamentalist college.
I asked him why it didn’t count, and he told me something about how they teach creationism and pass it off as science.
I promptly said that I don’t know about other religions, but the Church is a big supporter of the sciences because there is nothing that science will uncover that disproves God. I went on to say that science even supports a lot of what the Church teaches.
He was very skeptical and asked for an example. So, using his idea of creationism not being scientific, I connected it with the Big Bang theory.
I would very much like to hug Georges Lemaitre right now.
