I still don't like it when people (including atheists, I've heard many say it) claim that the Catholic church accepts the scientific theory of evolution. They don't; they accept their version of evolution, which is almost identical, but with the caveat that Adam and Eve were literal real people that lived at the same time (original sin and all that). That's not 'accepting' a scientific theory, that's tweaking a scientific theory to fit your doctrine.
In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty.
