And, as a result catholics adjusted their horseshit to accommodate reality.

Many fucking xhristards, OTOH, think the bible is literally true.

See the problem?

Don't forget Issac Newton. He was highly religious.

He was also a complete asshole*, but that's besides the point.

But, most Christians don't believe the Big Bang Theory is fact. So, you're saying, the real quack is a priest? It's bizarre. Do you want to deny it or take credit for it?


ETA: Literally thought someone else posted this. I'm going to leave my mistake up because that's how I roll. Sorry, folks.

The issue at hand is the intelligence of Christians. I think discovering the Big Bang counts in our favor along with genetics, the neural theory of brain function, theory of gravity, calculus, the nebular hypothesis of planet formation, and, oh yeah, the scientific method.

ROFLOL Damn dude, are you here all week? Those persons were xtians, as may be. But they are extreme outliers of those who are xtians, and for that matter, in the population at large. Your propensity for taking the credit for xtianity for these theories is truly pathetic.

In fact, I think that you have just proved the OP's point. Clap

So a handful of religious people discover these things, means every Christian is smart (enough), is that what you're getting at?

What I getting at is that the OP refutes itself with it's stupid premise.

Was it the fact that he was a catholic priest that gave him the insite, or the fact that he was a professor of physics?
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
