Sounds like the next HBO mini-series.
"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."

Holy shit. Can you imagine the faux outrage from the catholic apologist corps?
Would be worth the price of admission.

Boehner has balls ?
WTF ?
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Depends on how close he sits to the Pope, I guess.
