Catholics can roll with the punch when they're told even atheists are deserving of grace. They rolled with the punch when it came to evolution and the earth not being the center of everything.
But I wonder how well they'll cope when they finally reveal that heaven is not a literal place and all the 'eternity' any of us will ever know will have to fit within our finite lifespans? I wonder if any church as a whole will ever make its way from the literal to the allegorical truth of holy doctrines? Obviously American fundies won't.
