I've done some in vitro fertilisation firing. It's great fun, but I prefer the real thing - good job I have a long memory.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

He can just re-interpret the necessary verses so that the Church keeps up with public opinion, and claim that it was god's plan all along.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

What few people know about catholicism. Being gay is not considered a sin, it consuming gay sex. Hypocritical, I know, but as long as that priest doesn't have a boyfriend, they won't even remove him from his parish. At least they don't have to according to their own doctrines.
